Patent attributes
A turbine rotor blade is provided with for a turbine section of an engine that includes a shroud surrounding the rotor blade. The rotor blade includes a platform and an airfoil extending from the platform into a mainstream gas path. The airfoil includes a pressure side wall, a suction side wall joined to the pressure side wall at a leading edge and a trailing edge, a tip cap extending between the suction side wall and the pressure side wall, a first squealer tip extension extending from the pressure side wall at a first angle relative to the pressure side wall, the first squealer tip extension defining a first cooling hole that converges between an inlet and an outlet; an internal cooling circuit configured to deliver cooling air to a gap between the pressure side squealer tip extension and the shroud via the first cooling hole.
