Methods and systems of cooling airfoils are provided. The present invention provides systems and methods for providing cooling channels located within walls of a turbine airfoil. These cooling channels include micro-circuits that taper in various directions along the length and width of the airfoil. In addition, these cooling channels have a variety of shapes and areas to facilitate convective heat transfer between the surrounding air and the airfoil.
