Abstract
An engine component includes stratified metal layers. The stratified metal layers form walls of a cylinder head having internal cavities defining a cooling jacket configured to direct coolant within and through the walls. The stratified metal layers also form a lattice disposed within and spanning between opposing surfaces of the cooling jacket configured to promote heat transfer between the stratified metal layers and coolant.
