US Patent:
6546732, Apr 15, 2003
Filed:
Apr 27, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/844205
Inventors:
Craig Douglas Young - Maineville OH
Paul Edward Sabla - Cincinnati OH
Steven Clayton Vise - Cincinnati OH
Assignee:
General Electric Company - Schenectady NY
International Classification:
F23R 306
US Classification:
60772, 60740, 60748
Abstract:
A one-piece deflector-flare cone assembly for a gas turbine engine combustor that facilitates extending a useful life of the combustor in a cost-effective and reliable manner is described. The one-piece assembly includes a deflector portion and a flare cone portion. The deflector portion includes an integral opening that extends through the deflector portion for receiving cooling fluid therein. The cooling opening extends circumferentially within the deflector portion. Cooling fluid discharged from the cooling opening is used for film cooling a portion of the deflector portion to facilitate reducing an operating temperature and extending a useful life of the combustor.

Gas Turbine Combustor Liner With Asymmetric Dilution Holes Machined From A Single Piece Form

US Patent:
6553767, Apr 29, 2003
Filed:
Jun 11, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/878836
Inventors:
Gilbert Farmer - Cincinnati OH
Daniel D. Brown - Fairfield OH
Myron E. Rutherford - Cincinnati OH
Steven C. Vise - Cincinnati OH
Jeffrey M. Martini - Liberty Township OH
Assignee:
General Electric Company - Schenectady NY
International Classification:
F02C 314
US Classification:
60752, 2989001
Abstract:
An annular gas turbine engine combustor liner has a single piece annular shell circumscribed about a first axis of revolution. The shell has a hot side and a cold side, an annular dilution hole section, and a plurality of asymmetrical cylindrical dilution holes extending through the section. Pockets are circumferentially interdigitated between the dilution holes and extend into the shell from the cold side such that the pockets form dilution hole bosses between the pockets through which the dilution holes extend. Each of the dilution holes is circumscribed about a second axis of revolution which is not parallel to the first axis of revolution. The liner may further include forward and aft annular cooling nuggets located forward and aft of the dilution hole section and having annular film cooling slots which are open in the axially aftwardly direction. The shell is machined from a single piece integrally formed near net shape form such as a forging, a casting, or more particularly a spin or centrifugal casting. The invention includes a method for making the annular gas turbine engine combustor liner by forming a single piece integrally formed near net shape form and machining it to produce the shell and the above features in the shell.

Assignee:
General Electric Company - Schenectady NY
International Classification:
F02C 722
US Classification:
60776, 60 39821
Abstract:
A combustor for a gas turbine engine includes a plurality of igniter tubes that facilitate reducing temperature gradients within the combustor in a cost effective and reliable manner. The combustor includes an annular outer liner that includes a plurality of openings sized to receive igniter tubes. Each igniter tube maintains an alignment of each igniter received therein, and includes an air impingement device that extends radially outward from the igniter tube. During operation, airflow contacting the air impingement device is channeled radially inward for impingement cooling of the igniter tubes and the combustor outer liner.
