According to one aspect of the invention, a turbine includes a first sidewall, an airfoil positioned between the first sidewall and a second sidewall and a first passage in the airfoil proximate a high temperature region, the first passage configured to receive a cooling fluid, wherein the high temperature region is near an interface of the first sidewall and a trailing edge of the airfoil. The turbine further includes a first diffuser in fluid communication with the first passage, the first diffuser configured to direct the cooling fluid to form a film on a surface of the first sidewall. |
