Abstract

Airfoils bodies having a first core cavity and a second core cavity located within the airfoil body that is adjacent the first core cavity. The second core cavity is defined by a first cavity wall, a second cavity wall, a first exterior wall, and a second exterior wall, wherein the first cavity wall is located between the second core cavity and the first core cavity and the first and second exterior walls are exterior walls of the airfoil body. The first cavity wall includes a first surface angled toward the first exterior wall and a second surface angled toward the second exterior wall. At least one first cavity impingement hole is formed within the first surface and a central ridge extends into the second core cavity from at least one of the first cavity wall and the second wall and divides the second core cavity into a two-vortex chamber.
