Zusammenfassung:A rotor blade (40) for a gas turbine engine, includes a platform (62) including a radially outer surface (152) and a radially inner surface (144). An airfoil (60) extends radially outward from the platform. A shank (64) extends radially inward from the platform. A dovetail (66) extends from the shank such that an internal cavity is defined at least partially by the airfoil, the platform, the shank, and the dovetail. A cooling circuit extends through a portion of the shank for supplying cooling air from the cavity for impingement cooling of the platform radially inner surface.
