Patent ID: 10801334

Abstract:
An airfoil includes an airfoil section that extends in a radial direction from a platform to a tip, and extends in a thickness direction between a pressure side and a suction side that meet together at both a leading edge and a trailing edge. A purge partition radially divides the airfoil section. A perimeter of the purge partition follows along external walls of the airfoil section. The tip defines a tip pocket that extends radially inwardly from the tip to a floor. The airfoil section includes at least one internal cooling circuit and a purge cavity opposed to the at least one internal cooling circuit along the purge partition, with the purge partition bounded by the floor. The purge partition defines a first set of apertures that fluidly couple the at least one internal cooling circuit and the purge partition. A method of cooling a gas turbine engine component is also disclosed.
