摘要

A turbine blade for a gas turbine engine. The turbine blade includes a base having a blade root, a platform, a cooling air inlet, and a base air passageway. The turbine blade also includes an airfoil section adjoined to the base and having an outer wall, an airfoil air passageway, a plurality of trailing edge slots in fluid communication with the airfoil air passageway and a plurality of directional film holes through the outer wall in fluid communication with the airfoil air passageway. The plurality of directional film holes includes a first portion configured to discharge the cooling air toward a tip end, and a second portion configured to discharge the cooling air toward the platform.
