A gas turbine engine is provided with a turbine rotor disk having a plurality of disk slots which each receive a turbine blade. Cooling air is delivered into the disk slots, and flows into cooling air passages at a radially inner surface of the turbine blades. As known, the cooling air flows through the turbine blades to cool internal and external surfaces of the turbine blade. The disk slots are formed to have a greater cross-sectional area adjacent at the inlet end than at downstream locations. In this manner, the velocity of the air at the inlet end is reduced compared to the prior art, and pressure losses are minimized compared to the prior art.
