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:
An impingement cooling sleeve (50) includes a sleeve body (51) having an inner surface (52) to face a transition duct (30) and an outer surface (54) facing opposite the inner surface (52). At least one cooling hole (58) is formed within the sleeve body (51) and is used to direct cooling air toward the transition duct (30). At least one conduit member (60) is attached to the sleeve body (51) and is associated with the at least one cooling hole (58). The conduit member (60) has a first opening (62) to define an air inlet and a second opening (64) to define an air outlet. In one example, the first opening (62) is spaced apart from the outer surface (54) of the sleeve body (51) by a distance (D). In one example, the first opening (62) comprises an annular end face surface (78) that defines a plane (P) that is obliquely orientated relative to the outer surface (54) of the sleeve body (51).
