The combust assembly includes: a plurality of swirlers through which a first fluid that is a part of a fluid discharged from a compressor passes; a base portion, in which the plurality of swirlers are provided, comprising a first through hole formed between one swirler and another swirler from among the plurality of swirlers so that a second fluid that is another part of the fluid discharged from the compressor and different from the first fluid passes through the first through hole; and a deflector provided in the base portion so as to face the first through hole for changing a moving direction of the second fluid.

An apparatus for an impingement hole for an engine component of a gas turbine engine includes an impingement baffle. The impingement baffle is spaced from an impingement surface and includes a plurality of impingement holes for providing an impingement flow to the impingement surface. The impingement holes can have an angled upstream edge such that an inlet has a greater cross-sectional area than an outlet. The walls of the impingement holes can have a hood to provide a higher shear flow content to minimize dust accumulation on the impingement surface.

A combustor of an industrial gas turbine engine having a combustor secured within a combustor casing with a combustor cavity surrounding the combustor, and a flow liner forming a cooling air space between the casing and the flow liner in which high pressure cooling air can be passed to provide insulation to the casing from the high temperature gas surround the combustor.
