Engine Component With Film Cooling

Abstract: An engine component [120] for a gas turbine engine [10] which generates a hot combustion gas flow [H] adjacent a hot surface [126] and provides a cooling fluid flow [C] adjacent a cooling surface [124] comprises a wall [122] separating the hot combustion gas flow [H] and the cooling fluid flow [C]. At least one concavity [138] is provided in the cooling surface [124] and at least one film hole [130] is provided in the cooling surface [124] providing the cooling fluid flow [C] to the hot surface [H]. An inlet [132] for the film hole [130] is spaced from the at least one concavity [138], located upstream of the at least one concavity [138] and in alignment with the at least one concavity [138] relative to the cooling fluid flow [C].
