Patent abstract
An air-cooled component such as a turbine stator vane, has a row of cooling passages extending from the interior of the vane to the exterior. The passages are inclined to a plane perpendicular to the row. The angle of inclination of each passage varies with the position of the passage along the row. The arrangement assists in avoiding local overheating of the vane surface.
