Gas turbine engine component with variable cooling hole geometry

Abstract

A gas turbine engine component that has a web provided with an array of cooling holes distributed with respect to a first direction, wherein the cooling holes have a cross-sectional shape that varies along the first direction. The component may be configured so that the first direction corresponds to a loading distribution of the component which increases along the first direction from a low loading position to a high loading position.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
