Abstract

A component for use in a turbine engine includes a fore edge connected to an aft edge via a first surface and a second surface. Multiple cooling passages are defined within the turbine engine component. A first skin core passage is defined immediately adjacent one of the first surface and the second surface. At least 80% of coolant entering the first skin core passage is expelled from the turbine engine component at the aft edge.
