Abstract

See full text

A wake reducing structure includes a combustor liner having an inner surface and an outer surface, the inner surface defining a combustor chamber. Also included is an airflow path located along the outer surface of the combustor liner. Further included is a wake generating component disposed in the airflow path and proximate the combustor liner, wherein the wake generating component generates a wake region located downstream of the wake generating component. Yet further included is a wake generating component boss operatively coupled to the combustor liner and disposed within a combustor liner aperture. Also included is a cooling channel extending through the wake generating component boss, the cooling channel having an air inlet on an upstream region of the wake generating component boss and an air outlet on a downstream region of the wake generating component boss, the cooling channel configured to supply air to the wake region.
