An air flow guide cap for inducing an air flow into a through hole of the floor includes: an upper surface upwardly inclined relative to a horizontal plane; and a wall surface downwardly extending along edges of the upper surface except the edge adjacent to an air inlet.

The described reverse flow combustor of a gas turbine engine includes inner and outer combustor liners defining a combustor chamber therewithin. A large exit duct and a small exit duct are disposed at downstream ends of the outer and inner liner respectively. The small exit duct includes an annular ring removably mounted to a support element of the gas turbine engine and includes a plurality of cooling elements integrally formed with the annular ring and projecting therefrom into impingement airflow. The cooling elements increase the effective surface area of the inner surface of the annular ring, which is adapted to be cooled by the impingement airflow.

A gas turbine combustor floating collar for mounting an igniter or fuel nozzle to a combustor is provided with an outer periphery in a non-circular shape, for example having at least one section thereof formed with a flat surface, such as a square or triangular shape. The outer periphery of the floating collar is complementary to and completely surrounded by an inner periphery surface of a recess of a boss affixed on the combustor, thereby preventing substantial rotation of the floating collar with respect to the boss.

Provided is a burner of double tube structure including an outer tube and an inner tube. The inner tube includes a tip-side support portion fixed on the outer tube, a base-side support portion fixed on the outer tube, a main body portion supported by the tip-side support portion, bellows interposed between the main body portion and the base-side support portion, and a bulkhead member attached at a position between the tip-side support portion and the base-side support portion. Between an outer peripheral surface of the bulkhead member and an inner peripheral surface of the outer tube, a second gap smaller than a first gap between an outermost peripheral surface of the bellows and the inner peripheral surface of the outer tube is interposed.

A grommet for a combustor of a gas turbine engine is disclosed. The grommet includes a lower platform and a raised platform. The lower platform includes a plurality of top slots located in the top surface and a plurality of bottom slots located in the bottom surface. Each top slot and bottom slot may extend radially along the lower platform. The plurality of top slots may be spaced equidistantly from one another along the circumference of the lower platform. The plurality of bottom slots may be spaced equidistantly from one another along the circumference of the lower platform.

A turboengine as disclosed includes an outer wall structure and an inner wall structure, wherein the inner wall structure is provided at a radially inner position with respect to the outer wall structure, and each of the wall structures has a surface, the surfaces being arranged facing each other in the radial direction. At least one guide vane member includes at least one airfoil, a radially inner end and a radially outer end. The inner wall structure and the outer wall structure are jointly provided as a vane carrier unit, wherein the inner wall structure and the outer wall structure are fixedly connected to each other by at least one bridging member extending between the inner wall structure and the outer wall structure.

A heat shield assembly for an engine case of a gas turbine engine may include a heat shield and a support lock. The heat shield may have an annular shape. The heat shield may define an aperture extending through the heat shield. The support lock may have a tab extending radially outward from a distal surface of the support lock. The aperture in the heat shield may be configured to retain the tab of the support lock.

A system including a first multi-tube fuel nozzle including a plurality of first tubes extending in an axial direction, wherein each first tube of the plurality of first tubes includes a first air inlet, a first fuel inlet, and a first fuel-air mixture outlet, a second multi-tube fuel nozzle including a plurality of second tubes extending in an axial direction, wherein each second tube of the plurality of second tubes includes a second air inlet, a second fuel inlet, and a second fuel-air mixture outlet, and an aft plate including a plurality of first tube apertures and a plurality of second tube apertures, wherein the plurality of first tubes extend to the plurality of first tube apertures, and the plurality of second tubes extend to the plurality of second tube apertures.

A combustor of an aircraft engine comprises a liner defining a primary and a dilution zone having a hot surface exposed to a flow of combustion gases traveling from the primary zone downstream to the dilution zone and a cold surface. Dilution holes extending through the liner from the cold to the hot surface delimit the primary from the dilution zone. Effusion holes extending through the liner from the cold to the hot surface direct cooling air into the dilution zone. Two or more rows of effusion holes positioned within three dilution hole diameters downstream of the dilution holes are oriented relative to the liner to direct the cooling air in a cooling direction that is at least one of normal to the direction of the flow of gases passing adjacent the effusion holes, and against the direction of the flow of gases passing adjacent the effusion holes.

The present invention is a combustor provided with a combustor transition pipe connected to a turbine while interposing a transition pipe seal in between, including a flange portion provided at an end portion on a downstream side in a fluid flow direction of the combustor transition pipe, the flange portion projecting to radially inside and extending in a circumferential direction. The flange portion includes a pin hole into which a pin to position the transition pipe seal is inserted, a circumferential slit portion either extending within a range in a radial direction where the pin hole is formed or being located on radially outside of the pin hole and extending in the circumferential direction, and a hole portion on which part of the circumferential slit portion abuts.
