A cooling system for a turbine airfoil of a turbine engine having at least one divergent film cooling hole positioned in an outer wall defining the turbine airfoil is disclosed. The divergent film cooling hole includes a first section extending from an inner surface of the outer wall into the outer wall and a second section extending the first section and terminating at an outer surface of the outer wall. The divergent film cooling hole may provide a metering capability together with a divergent section that provides a larger film cooling hole breakout and footprint, which creates better film coverage and yields better cooling of the turbine airfoil. The divergent film cooling hole may provide a smooth transition, which allows the film cooling flow to diffuse better in the second section of the divergent film cooling hole.
