A gas turbine combustion chamber with an inner combustion chamber wall and an outer combustion chamber wall, which form an annular combustor, is provided. Mixing air holes are formed in the inner combustion chamber wall and the outer combustion chamber wall in a circumferentially distributed manner. The respective combustion chamber wall is bulged in the area of the mixing air holes towards the interior space of the combustion chamber wall and the mixing air hole is arranged inside the bulge. The mixing air hole is formed at an inflow surface of the bulge with respect to the through-flow direction of the combustion chamber.

A combustor panel may include an attachment feature. Because conventional attachment features of conventional combustor panels may be insufficiently cooled, the present disclosure provides various combustor configurations for reducing hotspots in the vicinity of attachment features and/or for providing cooling airflow to and in the vicinity of attachment features.

A combustor for a gas turbine engine includes a first liner having a first surface, a second surface opposite the first surface, and a wall having a thickness defined between the first surface and the second surface. The first liner defines a plurality of effusion cooling holes, and at least one of the effusion cooling holes includes an inlet section spaced apart from the first surface, and a converging section downstream of the inlet section. The inlet section and the converging section are each defined so as to be outside of the thickness. The at least one of the effusion cooling holes includes a metering section downstream of the converging section and a portion of the metering section is defined within the thickness. The at least one of the effusion cooling holes includes an outlet section downstream of the metering section. The outlet section is proximate to the second surface.

An engine component is generally provided for a gas turbine engine generating hot combustion gas flow. In one embodiment, the engine the engine component includes a substrate having a hot surface facing the hot combustion gas flow and a cooling surface facing a cooling fluid flow. The substrate defines a film hole extending through the substrate and having an inlet provided on the cooling surface, an outlet provided on the hot surface, and a passage connecting the inlet and the outlet. The passage defines a diffusion section having a pair of side passage walls extending to the outlet on the hot surface, with each of the side passage walls within the diffusion section having a surface roughness (Ra) of about 4 mils to about 7 mils. Methods are also provided for forming a film hole in a CMC substrate.

A combustor assembly for a turbine engine includes a liner panel defining a portion of an inner surface of a combustor chamber. The liner panel includes an end face transverse the inner surface and at least one diffuser through the end face. A method of assembling a combustor for a turbine engine is also disclosed.

A wall assembly for a combustor of a gas turbine engine is provided. The wall assembly includes a support shell with a contoured region to define at least one convergent passage between the support shell and a multiple of liner panels. A method of cooling a wall assembly for a combustor of a gas turbine engine is also provided. This method includes a step of directing cooling air into at least one convergent passage between the support shell and a multiple of liner panels.

A liner panel is provided for use in a combustor of a gas turbine engine. The liner panel includes a major dilution passage having a lip and a first seal boss. The liner panel also includes a minor dilution passage having a second seal boss adjacent the first seal boss.

A combustor for a gas turbine engine including a forward liner panel mounted to a support shell via a multiple of studs, the forward liner panel including an aft non-linear circumferential edge and an aft liner panel mounted to the support shell via a multiple of studs, the aft liner panel including a forward non-linear circumferential edge that is complementary to the aft non-linear circumferential edge.
