COOLED COMPONENT

摘要

A cooled gas turbine engine component comprises a wall which has a plurality of effusion cooling apertures extending there-through from a first surface to a second surface. The apertures are arranged at an angle to the second surface and each aperture has an inlet in the first surface and an outlet in the second surface. Each aperture has a metering portion and a diffusing portion arranged in flow series and each metering portion is elongate and the width is greater than the length of the metering portion. Each diffusing portion increases in dimension in the length from the metering portion to the outlet. Each outlet has a rectangular shape in the second surface of the wall. Each inlet has an elongate shape in the first surface of the wall and the inlet in the wall is arranged substantially diagonally with respect to the outlet in the wall.
