Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An apparatus and method for improving the heat transfer coefficient for an engine component for a turbine engine such as an airfoil. The airfoil can include an outer wall defining an interior. A cooling passage can be formed in the interior defining a flow direction. An insert can be provided in the cooling passage to occupy a volume of the cooling passage to maintain a threshold Mach number for an airflow passing through the cooling passage to improve the heat transfer coefficient.
