Zusammenfassung:Core assemblies for manufacturing airfoils and airfoils made therefrom are described. The core assemblies having a leading edge hybrid skin core positioned relative to a plurality of core bodies and configured to define a leading edge cavity at a leading edge of the manufactured airfoil. The leading edge hybrid skin core extends from a root region toward a tip region in a radial direction, the leading edge hybrid skin core extends above at least one of the plurality of core bodies to define an exit in a tip region of the manufactured airfoil, and the leading edge hybrid skin core has a height-to-width ratio of about 0.8 or less.
