A cooled wall of a turbine component includes a first layer of channels for a coolant arranged along a side of the wall facing to a flow of hot gas, the first layer of channels having a serpentine shape, each channel of the first layer having an inlet and an outlet; a second layer of channels for the coolant disposed further from the flow of hot gas than the first layer, each channel of the second layer having an inlet and an outlet, the outlet of each of the channels of the first layer being in fluid communication with corresponding inlet of associated channel of the second layer creating a bend for changing a direction of the coolant leaving the channel of the first layer when entering the channel of the second layer.

Cooled wall of a turbine component and a method for cooling this wall

A stator for a turbine includes an arrangement of vanes including at least a first vane and a second vane circumferentially neighboring the first vane. Each of the first vane and the second vane include: an airfoil; a channel system configured to cool the respective vane with cooling gas; and an inner diameter platform disposed at an inner end of the airfoil, the inner diameter platform including an inner diameter platform cavity and a circumferentially arranged side wall which delimits the inner diameter platform cavity, the inner diameter platform cavity being connected with the channel system so as to feed the cooling gas to the inner diameter platform. At least one sealing plate is disposed between the circumferentially arranged side walls of the first vane and the second vane so as to form an intermediate cavity that is fluidically separated from the inner diameter platform cavities.
