<p>A component of a turbine stage of a gas turbine engine is provided. The component forms an endwall for the working gas annulus of the stage. The component has one or more internal passages behind the endwall which, in use, carry a flow of cooling air providing convective cooling for the component at the endwall. Each passage is formed by a plurality of straight passage sections. The passage sections connect end-to-end such that the connections between nearest-neighbour passage sections form angled bends. A first portion of the passage sections lie in a first plane. A second portion of the passage sections lie in a second plane which is spaced from and parallel to the first plane. A third portion of the passage sections extend between the first and the second planes.</p> |
