Abstract
A turbine blade having a base and an airfoil, the base including a root end. The airfoil including a skin extending from the base and defining a leading edge, a trailing edge, having a tip end opposite from the root end. The turbine blade further including dividers located within the airfoil. The dividers, leading edge, trailing edge, and skin define serpentine channels within the airfoil. A first multi-bend heat exchange path and a second multi-bend heat exchange path extend through the serpentine channels to cool portion of the turbine blade.
