A turbine engine vane comprising: an outer platform; an inner platform; an airfoil extending between the outer platform and the inner platform and including a hollow airfoil section defining a leading edge cavity in communication with a source of cooling air through a first opening in the leading edge cavity and a trailing edge cavity in communication with a source of cooling air through a second opening in the trailing edge cavity, wherein the trailing edge cavity is smaller than the leading edge cavity; a baffle insert disposed within the leading edge cavity and defining an interior channel with an open top through which cooling air flows, wherein the baffle insert includes a plurality of baffle insert scoops for directing cooling air through the insert and against an inner surface of the leading edge cavity, characterised in that the plurality of baffle insert scoops protrude into the interior channel and in that an opening of each of the plurality of baffle insert scoops is directed towards an incoming flow of cooling air to capture total pressure of the cooling air which is directed to impinge on the inner surface of the leading edge cavity; and a flat plate insert disposed within the trailing edge cavity, the flat plate insert including a first side and a second side and a plurality of flat plate insert scoops configured to direct cooling air flow through the flat plate insert from the first side to the second side against an inner surface of the trailing edge cavity, wherein the plurality of flat plate insert scoops extends from the flat plate insert on the first side and an opening of each of the plurality of flat plate insert scoops is directed towards an incoming flow of cooling air to capture total pressure of the cooling air which is directed to impinge on the inner surface of the trailing edge cavity. an outer platform; an inner platform; an airfoil extending between the outer platform and the inner platform and including a hollow airfoil section defining a leading edge cavity in communication with a source of cooling air through a first opening in the leading edge cavity and a trailing edge cavity in communication with a source of cooling air through a second opening in the trailing edge cavity, wherein the trailing edge cavity is smaller than the leading edge cavity; a baffle insert disposed within the leading edge cavity and defining an interior channel with an open top through which cooling air flows, wherein the baffle insert includes a plurality of baffle insert scoops for directing cooling air through the insert and against an inner surface of the leading edge cavity, characterised in that the plurality of baffle insert scoops protrude into the interior channel and in that an opening of each of the plurality of baffle insert scoops is directed towards an incoming flow of cooling air to capture total pressure of the cooling air which is directed to impinge on the inner surface of the leading edge cavity; and a flat plate insert disposed within the trailing edge cavity, the flat plate insert including a first side and a second side and a plurality of flat plate insert scoops configured to direct cooling air flow through the flat plate insert from the first side to the second side against an inner surface of the trailing edge cavity, wherein the plurality of flat plate insert scoops extends from the flat plate insert on the first side and an opening of each of the plurality of flat plate insert scoops is directed towards an incoming flow of cooling air to capture total pressure of the cooling air which is directed to impinge on the inner surface of the trailing edge cavity.
