Abstract
A cooled gas turbine engine component comprises a wall having first and second surfaces. The second surface has a plurality of recesses and each recess has a planar upstream end surface arranged so that it hangs over the upstream end of the recess. Each recess has a depth equal to the required depth plus the thickness of the thermal barrier coating to be deposited. The wall has a plurality of angled effusion cooling apertures extending from the first surface towards the second surface. Each effusion cooling aperture has an inlet in the first surface and an outlet in the end surface of a corresponding one of the recesses in the second surface. Each recess has smoothly curved transitions from the end surface and side surfaces to the second surface. Blocking of the effusion cooling apertures by thermal barrier coating is reduced.
