Abstract

Two pairs of ribs define three intermediate cooling chambers. Each rib in each pair extends parallel to the other rib in the pair. The ribs in a first pair are non-parallel to the ribs in a second pair. A first rib from the first pair is positioned spaced toward the leading edge. A first rib of the second pair is then serially positioned spaced toward the trailing edge. A second rib of the first pair is then positioned toward the trailing edge relative to the first rib in the second pair. A second rib in the second pair is then positioned toward the trailing edge relative to the second rib in the first pair.
