Abstract: The invention relates to an annular combustion chamber of a gas turbine having a machine axis. The combustion chamber includes at least two zones. A first zone receives the fuel/air mixture of a plurality of burners. A second zone guides the hot gases being produced by the burners from the first zone to an entrance of a turbine section of said gas turbine. An annular transition liner includes a plurality of liner segments located at the transition between said first zone and second zone. Each of the liner segments includes with respect to the axial hot gas flow a leading edge, a trailing edge, and two sidewalls, and is provided with axial mounting means at the leading and trailing edges, such that the liner segment can be installed in axial direction and is axially fixed by respective segments of the neighboring first zone.

Abstract: A hot gas segment arrangement, especially for a combustion chamber of a gas turbine, that includes at least one hot gas segment, which is removably mounted on a carrier, and is subjected at its outside to hot gas and impingement-cooled at its inside, whereby an impingement plate with a plurality of distributed impingement holes is arranged in a distance at the inside of the impingement plate. A cooling air supply means is provided for loading the impingement plate with pressurized cooling air in order to generate through the impingement holes jets of cooling air, which impinge on the inside of the hot gas segment. The cooling efficiency and lifetime are increased by the impingement plate being part of a closed receptacle, which is supplied with the pressurized cooling air, and by the receptacle with the impingement plate being mounted on the carrier independently of the hot gas segment.
