Abstract
An airfoil for a gas turbine engine according to an example of the present disclosure includes, among other things, an airfoil section that has an internal wall and an external wall. The external wall defines pressure and suction sides that extends in a chordwise direction between a leading edge and a trailing edge, a first impingement cavity and a second impingement cavity bounded by the external wall at a leading edge region that defines the leading edge, a first feeding cavity separated from the first impingement cavity and from the second impingement cavity by the internal wall, and a first crossover passage within the internal wall that connects the first impingement cavity and the first feeding cavity. The first crossover passage defines a first passage axis that intersects a surface of the first impingement cavity. A second crossover passage within the internal wall connects to the second impingement cavity. The second crossover passage defines a second passage axis that intersects a surface of the second impingement cavity.
