Airfoil for a turbine engine

Abstract:

A method and apparatus for an airfoil in a gas turbine engine can include an outer surface bounding an interior and spanning from a root to a tip. At least one flow channel can be defined among one or more full-length and partial-length ribs to further define an air flow channel within the airfoil. The air flow channel can have at least one tip turn at the partial-length rib, having at least one hole, for example a film hole, in a portion of the tip.
