Abstract: An airfoil of a turbine engine may have internal passages to permit the travel of cooling air through the airfoil. Multiple airfoils may be formed together in a stator vane assembly, and cooling air may be directed through the stator vane assembly. The stator vane assembly may be mounted to an engine structure to carry structural loads experienced by the stator vane assembly. Buttresses may be formed in the stator vane assembly, such as beneath each airfoil of the stator vane assembly, and extending into a passage permitting the travel of cooling air through the airfoil. The buttresses may enhance the strength and stability of the stator vane assembly by facilitating the transmission of structural loads to an engine structure. A channel may be defined through one or more buttress to enable the passage of cooling air into the airfoils, and yet allow the buttresses to carry structural loads.
