Cooling arrangement including overlapping diffusers

Abstract:

A gas turbine engine component according to an example of the present disclosure includes a wall extending in a thickness direction between first and second wall surfaces. The first wall surface bounds an internal cavity. The wall includes a plurality of cooling passages. Each of the cooling passages extend in a first direction between an inlet port and an outlet port coupled to a respective diffuser, and the inlet port coupled to the internal cavity along the first wall surface. Sidewalls of adjacent diffusers are conjoined to establish a common diffuser region interconnecting the diffusers and a common outlet along the second wall surface. A method of cooling a gas turbine engine component is also disclosed.
