Abstract
A flowpath component for a gas turbine engine includes a leading edge, a trailing edge connected to the leading edge via a first surface and a second surface, an impingement cavity internal to the flowpath component, the impingement cavity being aligned with one of the leading edge and the trailing edge, a cooling passage extending at least partially through the flowpath component, and a plurality of crossover holes connecting the cooling passage to the impingement cavity. At least one of the crossover holes is aligned normal to an expected direction of fluid flow through the cooling passage and is unaligned with an axial line drawn perpendicular to a stacking line of the flowpath component.
