Zusammenfassung:A scoop (54) over a coolant inlet hole (48) in an outer wall (40B) of a double-walled tubular structure (40A, 40B) of a gas turbine engine component (26, 28). The scoop redirects a coolant flow (37) into the hole. The leading edge (56, 58) of the scoop has a central projection (56) or tongue that overhangs the coolant inlet hole, and a curved undercut (58) on each side of the tongue between the tongue and a generally C-shaped or generally U-shaped attachment base (53) of the scoop. A partial scoop (62) may be cooperatively positioned with the scoop (54).
