Abstract
A component according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, an airfoil that includes a first sidewall and a second sidewall joined together at a leading edge and a trailing edge and extending from a base to a tip. A plenum is defined inside the airfoil. A first cooling cavity merges into the plenum and a second cooling cavity merges into the plenum. A rib extends from at least one of the first sidewall and the second sidewall at least partially into the plenum to separate the first cooling cavity from the second cooling cavity.
