ABSTRACT:
A gas turbine engine turbine airfoil includes first and second opposite sidewalls joined together at leading and trailing edges and extending from a root to a tip thereof. The sidewalls have respective outer surfaces over which is flowable combustion gases during operation. The sidewalls are spaced apart to define an internal flow passage for receiving a cooling fluid. A plurality of ejection slots are arranged in a column through the first sidewall and have flow inlets for receiving cooling fluid from the internal flow passage and ejecting the fluid from respective flow outlets along the outer surface. At least some of the ejection slots are inclined at an acute ejection angle which varies in magnitude for preferably matching the respective inclination of combustion gas streamlines flowable over the airfoil surface.
