    Abstract: A mold assembly for use in forming a component having an outer wall of a predetermined thickness includes a mold and a jacketed core. The jacketed core includes a jacket that includes a first jacket outer wall coupled against an interior wall of the mold, a second jacket outer wall positioned interiorly from the first jacket outer wall, and at least one jacketed cavity defined therebetween. The at least one jacketed cavity is configured to receive a molten component material therein. The jacketed core also includes a core positioned interiorly from the second jacket outer wall. The core includes a perimeter coupled against the second jacket outer wall. The jacket separates the perimeter from the interior wall by the predetermined thickness, such that the outer wall is formable between the perimeter and the interior wall.

    Abstract: A component is formed from a component material introduced into a mold assembly. The mold assembly includes a mold that has a cavity defined therein by an interior wall. The cavity receives the component material in a molten state to form the component. A multiple component core assembly is positioned with respect to the mold and has a first core component attached to a second core component at a core split line. A core connection component is attached to each of the first and second core components at the core split line, such that the first core component is held adjacent the second core component at the core split line. The core connection component is formed from a connection component material that is at least partially absorbable by the component material.

    Abstract: A component includes an outer wall that includes an exterior surface and an opposite interior surface. The component also includes at least one internal void defined adjacent the interior surface and configured to receive a cooling fluid therein. The component further includes a plurality of openings defined in and extending through the outer wall such that the outer wall defines an edge of each of the plurality of openings. Additionally, the component includes a plurality of separable plugs each positioned in a corresponding opening. Each of the separable plugs is sized to fit within the corresponding opening such that a clearance gap is defined between the separable plug and the edge of the corresponding opening. Each of the separable plugs is coupled to the outer wall by at least one tab that extends across the clearance gap from the each separable plug to the edge of the corresponding opening.

    Abstract: A component configured for impingement cooling includes an inner wall defining a plurality of apertures. Each aperture of the plurality of apertures is configured to emit a cooling fluid therethrough. The component also includes an outer wall spaced from the inner wall. The outer wall and the inner wall extend along a longitudinal axis of the component. The component further includes a plurality of angled walls extending between the inner wall and the outer wall. The plurality of angled walls define a plurality of angled channels in fluid communication with the plurality of apertures. Each angled wall of the plurality of angled walls extends at an acute angle relative to the longitudinal axis.
