An airfoil includes a leading edge, a trailing edge, a pressure side wall, and a suction side wall. The pressure side wall and the suction side wall each extend between the leading edge and the trailing edge. A camber axis is defined halfway between the pressure side wall and the suction side wall. A cooling circuit is defined in the airfoil. The cooling circuit includes a trailing edge cooling circuit. The trailing edge cooling circuit has a pressure side channel that is disposed at least partially on a first side of the camber axis and a suction side channel that is disposed at least partially on a second side of the camber axis. The pressure side channel and the suction side channel each converge towards the trailing edge as the pressure side channel and the suction side channel extend towards the trailing edge.
An airfoil defining a camber axis, a transverse direction orthogonal to the camber axis, and a radial direction orthogonal to the transverse direction, the airfoil comprising:
