A lost core mold component comprises a first leg and a second leg with a plurality of crossover members connecting the first and second legs. The plurality of crossover members includes outermost crossover members spaced from each other. Adjacent ends of each of the first and second legs, and second crossover members are spaced closer to each other than are the outermost crossover members. Central crossover members extend between the first and second leg and between the second crossover members. The outermost crossover members extend for a first cross-sectional area. The second crossover members extend for a second cross-sectional area and the central crossover members extend for a third cross-sectional area. The first cross-sectional area is greater than the second cross-sectional area. The second cross-sectional area is greater than the third cross-sectional area. A gas turbine engine and component are also disclosed.

Lost core structural frame

A vane according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a platform extending from an edge face and between spaced apart lateral faces and an airfoil extending outwardly from the platform. The platform includes at least one ejection port in the edge face and at least one passage connected to the at least one ejection port. A method of cooling a component is also disclosed.

BOAS thermal protection

A vane according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a platform extending from an edge face and between spaced apart lateral faces and an airfoil extending outwardly from the platform. The platform includes at least one ejection port in the edge face and at least one passage connected to the at least one ejection port.

A component for a gas turbine engine includes a platform having an outer surface and an inner surface. A cover plate can be positioned adjacent to the outer surface of the platform. The outer surface of the platform can include a pocket and the cover plate is positioned relative to the pocket to establish a platform cooling channel therebetween.

Gas turbine engine component having platform cooling channel

An airfoil component is described herein. The airfoil component may include an OD platform comprising a gaspath face and a non-gaspath face coupled together via a plurality of cooling holes. The airfoil component may include an airfoil extending in from the outer diameter platform. The plurality of cooling holes comprises a plurality of groups of cooling holes disposed in the outer diameter platform proximate a suction side of the airfoil and a pressure side of the airfoil.

Outer diameter platform cooling hole system and assembly

A component for a gas turbine engine according to an exemplary embodiment can include a platform having an outer surface and an inner surface. A cover plate can be positioned adjacent to the outer surface of the platform. The outer surface of the platform can include a pocket and the cover plate is positioned relative to the pocket to establish a platform cooling channel therebetween.
