Abstract:
A liner panel for use in a combustor for a gas turbine engine includes a forward region including a multiple of effusion passages each directed at an orientation consistent with a local swirl direction of combustion gases. Another liner panel for use in a combustor for a gas turbine engine includes a forward region forward of a dilution passage and an aft region aft of the forward region. The forward region includes a multiple of effusion passages each directed generally circumferentially. The aft region includes a multiple of effusion passages each directed at an orientation generally axially. A method of cooling a wall assembly within a combustor of a gas turbine engine includes orienting a multiple of effusion passages within a forward region consistent with a local swirl direction of combustion gases.
Abstract:
A liner for a combustor of a turbine engine includes a cooling feature which projects from a backside and an effusion hole that communicates through the liner
Abstract:
A wall assembly is provided for a gas turbine engine. This wall assembly includes a support shell with a contoured region; and a multiple of liner panels mounted to the support shell. At least one of the multiple of liner panels includes an end rail. The contoured region is deformable to selectively contact at least a portion of the end rail. A method of assembling a wall assembly within a gas turbine engine is also provided. This method includes locating a stud that extends from a cold side of a liner panel through a support shell; and attaching a fastener onto the stud to at least partially close a gap defined between the panel and shell.
Abstract:
A turbine engine assembly includes a combustor and a stator vane arrangement having a plurality of stator vanes. The combustor includes a combustor wall that extends axially from a combustor bulkhead to a distal combustor wall end, which is located adjacent to the stator vane arrangement. The combustor wall includes a support shell with a plurality of impingement apertures, and a heat shield with a plurality of effusion apertures. The combustor wall end includes a plurality of circumferentially extending film cooled regions. At least one of the film cooled regions is circumferentially aligned with one of the stator vanes and includes a cooling aperture.
Abstract:
A liner panel within a gas turbine engine includes a perimeter rail that defines a first height from a cold side. The liner panel also includes an intermediate rail that defines a second height from the cold side, where the second height is less than the first height.
Abstract:
A heat shield for a combustor of a gas turbine engine includes a cold side opposite a hot side, the cold side defines a grommet that surrounds an igniter aperture, the grommet includes a multiple of fins.
Abstract:
A heat shield for a combustor of a gas turbine engine includes an outer edge surface with an outlet of an edge cooling passage, the edge cooling passage oriented to direct cooling air generally upstream relative to a combustion gas flow.
