Abstract: An airfoil includes a main portion formed of a base material and having an inner core comprising a hollow region. Also included is a trailing edge region of the main portion. Further included is a trailing edge supplement structure comprising a low-melt superalloy operatively coupled to the base material proximate the trailing edge region. Yet further included is at least one cooling passage fluidly coupling the inner core of the main portion to an inner region of the trailing edge region. Also included is a trailing edge region exhaust path disposed in the inner region and configured to route a cooling airflow in a span-wise direction of the airfoil.

Abstract: A method for fabricating an airfoil includes forming a diffuser section in an exterior surface of the airfoil. The diffuser section is defined by at least an outer surface and an inner surface that converge at a stop surface. The method also includes positioning a drilling element of a drilling device on the stop surface. The method further includes orienting the drilling element at a first angle relative to the exterior surface. The method also includes forming, using the drilling element, a cooling channel extending through the airfoil from the stop surface to an interior surface, thereby forming the cooling channel at substantially the first angle.
