Abstract: A combustor for a gas turbine engine includes a combustor liner with a wall defining a combustion chamber. The wall has an inner surface facing the combustion chamber and an outer surface across the wall from the inner surface. Fins are disposed on the outer surface. The wall defines air admission holes that extend through the wall from the outer surface to the inner surface. The wall also defines film cooling holes that extend through the wall from the outer surface to the inner surface. The fins are disposed in areas of the outer surface between the film cooling holes and the air admission holes to cool areas that would otherwise result in hot spots.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides the planning of the next generation network which complements an existing telecom deployment to achieve the desired KPIs from the combined network for both macro and small cell planning in an existing network in a cost-effective method to deploy ODSC cells and Macro Cells in a heterogeneous network. Planning a next-generation network for an existing telecom operator is a large undertaking, utilizing precious man-hours and most importantly, weeks of work. Using an automated planning methodology to plan macro and small cells for a region like a city, state or even country, planners can deploy solutions to make the most optimum use of existing infrastructure. The invention proposes an automated approach to plan the preferred overlay telecom solutions in an area A being part of an existing telecom deployment.
