METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PROVIDING COOLING FOR TURBINE COMPONENTS

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method and system (100) for cooling a turbine component (34) that includes a region to be cooled.SOLUTION: A recess is defined within the region to be cooled, and includes an inner face. At least one support projection (48) extends from the inner face. The at least one support projection includes a free end. A cover (54) is coupled to the region to be cooled, and an inner surface (57) of the cover is coupled to the free end of the at least one support projection, so that at least one cooling fluid passage is defined within the region to be cooled.
