An airfoil for a gas turbine engine includes an outer airfoil wall that provides an exterior surface and multiple radially extending cooling passages. The exterior surface provides pressure and suctions sides joined by leading and trailing edges. The cooling passages include a supply passage arranged upstream from and in fluid communication with a trailing edge passage. A cooling hole extends through the outer airfoil wall from the supply passage to the exterior surface on the suction side.

An article includes a body that has a coating thereon. The coating has a first portion disposed on a first section of the body and a second portion disposed on a second, different section of the body. The first portion has a first microstructure and the second portion has a second, different microstructure.

Multiple coating configuration

A component for a gas turbine engine according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, an body portion that extends between a leading edge and a trailing edge. At least one of the leading edge and the trailing edge includes at least one discharge slot having a first portion that includes an oval geometry.

An airfoil platform includes a platform body having an arcuate base defining a centerline axis. A rail extends radially outboard from a side of the arcuate base. A feed orifice is defined at least partially in the rail. The inner diameter edge of an axially facing opening of the feed orifice is spaced apart radially outboard of an outer diameter surface of the arcuate base. A method for manufacturing an airfoil platform includes providing an airfoil platform body and forming the feed orifice through the rail. Forming the feed orifice through the rail includes forming the feed orifice radially outboard of and spaced apart from the outer diameter surface of the arcuate base.

A vane includes a pair of airfoils that have a plurality of film cooling holes that extend through an exterior surface of the airfoils. Each plurality of film cooling holes break through the exterior surface at geometric coordinates in accordance with Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z as set forth in Table 1. Each geometric coordinates is measured from a reference point on a leading edge rail of a platform of the vane.

An airfoil component for a gas turbine engine includes an airfoil extending from a platform. At least one of the airfoil and the platform includes a cooling passage defined by a surface. A chevron-shaped trip strip extends from the surface into the cooling passage at a trip strip height along a length. The trip strip height varies along the length. A turbine vane for a gas turbine engine includes inner and outer platforms. A cooling passage is provided in the inner platform. The cooling passage is provided by first and second radially extending legs spaced circumferentially apart from one another and joined to one another by a circumferential passage. A pair of airfoils extend radially from the same inner platform. A trip strip extends from the surface into the circumferential passage at a trip strip height along a length. The trip strip height varying along the length.

A stator vane for a gas turbine engine includes an airfoil extending in a radial direction and supported by a platform having a gas flowpath surface. A cooling passage is arranged in the platform and includes a circumferential passage that is fluidly connected to an inlet passage extending through and edge of the platform, and film cooling holes extending from the gas flowpath surface to the circumferential passage, radial extending passage through the edge of the platform. A void is interconnected to at least one of the radially extending passage and the inlet passage.
