A gas turbine engine having a blade assembly with a platform, an airfoil, and a shank. The airfoil has a plurality of cooling conduits, and the shank has a plurality of inlet passages to provide cooling fluid to the cooling conduits in the airfoil. The cooling fluid is vented through a plurality of cooling holes along the airfoil. The blade assembly has specific geometries that improve durability.

Turbine engine with a blade assembly having a set of cooling conduits

A turbine engine includes an engine core extending along an engine centerline and includes a compressor section, a combustor, and a turbine section in serial flow arrangement. A turbine nozzle is arranged in the turbine section. Vanes of the turbine nozzle include a vane airfoil having cooling features formed in a trailing edge of the vane airfoil. Vanes of the turbine nozzle further include a baffle insert in a cavity of the vane airfoil. The baffle insert includes cooling holes.
