  • Combustor cooling structure
    Patent number: 9879605
    Abstract: The invention relates to a transition piece assembly for a gas turbine. A transition piece having one end adapted for connection to a gas combustor and an opposite end adapted for connection to a first turbine stage. The transition piece having at least one external liner and at least one internal liner. The internal liner forms the hot gas flow channel. A first section of the transition piece assembly upstream of a first turbine stage has a plurality of cooling apertures. Cooling medium through the cooling apertures enters the plenum, which is created between external and internal liners and a cooling medium flows along at least the first section of the transition piece assembly. At least one second section upstream of the first section with respect to the hot gas flow has at least one additional air inlet system.
