Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An airfoil for a gas turbine engine includes a body with a first side wall and a second side wall joined at a leading edge and a trailing edge, the first side wall having a first interior surface and the second side wall having a second interior surface. The airfoil further includes an internal wall disposed within of the body and extending between the first interior surface and the second interior surface to define a supply passage and a leading edge passage. The internal wall defines a plurality of cooling holes to direct cooling air from the supply passage to the leading edge passage such that the cooling air impinges upon the leading edge. The airfoil further includes a first plurality of grooves formed in the first interior surface, each the first plurality of grooves extending in a chordwise direction within the leading edge passage.
