ABSTRACT:
The wall of a hollow airfoil for a gas turbine engine includes a film cooling slot therein elongated in the longitudinal direction and having a base within the wall and an outlet at the external surface of the airfoil. A plurality of metering passages extend from inlets at the internal surface of the wall and intersect the slot near its base. The metering passages are angled to direct a metered flow of coolant fluid at a sharp angle against a surface of the slot to cause turbulence and diffusion of the coolant fluid within the slot in order that the coolant fluid fill the entire slot. The coolant fluid thereupon exits the slot as a thin film over the surface of the airfoil downstream of the slot outlet along the full length of the slot.
