Combustor liner

A combustor liner used for a gas turbine combustor and forming a combustion chamber includes: an outer side wall made of metal; a panel attached to an inner side of the outer side wall and made of a ceramic matrix composite material, the panel including a panel body facing the combustion chamber, and a connection piece rising from an exterior surface of the panel body at a side portion of the panel body and protruding in a lateral direction; and a connection unit configured to connect the panel to the outer side wall, the connection unit including an elastic member configured to bias at least one of the outer side wall and the connection piece, and a fixation member made of metal and configured to fix at least one of the connection piece and the elastic member to the outer side wall.

Combustor wall assembly for gas turbine engine

Wall assemblies for a combustor of a gas turbine engine are disclosed. A wall assembly comprises an outer shell made of a metallic material, adjacent first and second inner panels mounted to the outer shell via an insert and a damper disposed between the outer shell and at least one of the first and second inner panels. The first and second inner panels may be spaced apart from the outer shell to define a double-wall configuration with the outer shell. The first and second inner panels may be made of a composite material. The insert may be made from substantially the same or other type of composite material.

Combustor, a tile holder and a tile

A combustor including a combustor lining, a tile including a recess at an end defining a receiving surface, and a tile holder. The tile holder includes an elongate retaining head having a combustor surface configured to face a combustion chamber of a combustor, and a securing portion extending from the head, the securing portion being configured to secure the head to a combustor lining. The retaining head extends laterally with respect to an elongate direction of the retaining head to define a retaining surface laterally adjacent to the securing portion; and the retaining surface cooperates with the receiving surface of the tile to retain the tile against the combustor lining. There is also disclosed a tile holder and a tile.

Extended bulkhead panel

A combustor may comprise an outer combustor panel and an inner combustor panel radially inward of the outer combustor panel. A bulkhead panel may extend radially between the outer combustor panel and the inner combustor panel. An outer spacer may be located between an outer flange of the bulkhead panel and the outer combustor panel. An inner spacer may be located between an inner flange of the bulkhead panel and the inner combustor panel.

COMBUSTOR FOR A GAS TURBINE ENGINE

A combustor for a gas turbine engine, the gas turbine engine defining a longitudinal centerline extending in a longitudinal direction, a radial direction extending orthogonally outward from the longitudinal centerline, and a circumferential direction extending concentrically around the longitudinal centerline, the combustor including: a liner at least partially defining a combustion chamber, the liner further defining a gap; and an intermediate member disposed at least partially within the gap of the liner and in fluid communication with the combustion chamber, wherein the intermediate member is retained at a relatively fixed position with respect to the liner by a support extending between the intermediate member and a case of the gas turbine engine.
