Patent attributes
A dual-wall airfoil configured for coolant transfer includes a spar having a pressure side wall and a suction side wall each including raised features on an outer surface thereof. An interior of the spar includes coolant cavities. An inner surface of a pressure side coversheet is in contact with the raised features on the outer surface of the pressure side wall so as to define pressure side flow pathways between the pressure side wall and the pressure side coversheet, and an inner surface of a suction side coversheet is in contact with the raised features on the outer surface of the suction side wall so as to define suction side flow pathways between the suction side wall and the suction side coversheet. The pressure side flow pathways and/or the suction side flow pathways include cooling circuit(s) configured to transfer coolant between the coolant cavities.
