Abstract: A premixing nozzle includes swirler blades for agitating combustion air inside a nozzle body. Each one end of the swirler blades is fitted to the nozzle body, and the other end is connected to a hub, respectively. The tip portion of a fuel nozzle shaft is conical, and a part of the tip portion is arranged inside the hub. A combustion gas flows into the hub from a space between the tip portion of the fuel nozzle shaft and the upstream end of the hub, passes through between the tip portion and the inner peripheral surface of the hub, and flows toward the downstream of the hub.

Abstract: A combustor for a gas turbine has an arrangement to form a layer of cooling-air on an inner surface of a liner of a combustion chamber. This layer of the cooling air extends from a fuel nozzle block of the combustor toward a downstream side with respect to the liner.

Abstract: There is provided a combustor comprising a fuel nozzle which is comprised of a rodlike body which has a fuel passage and which is located in an air passage; a plurality of hollow members which are connected to the fuel passage and which extend in radial directions from the rodlike body into the air passage; at least one injection port formed in each hollow member to inject a fuel from the fuel passage into the air passage; and a projection which extends from a farmost inner wall of each hollow member that is most distant from an axis of the rodlike body to the injection port that is most distant from the axis. A hole for leaking fuel that is connected to an air passage may be formed in a farmost inner wall of the hollow member that is more distant from an axis of a rodlike body than the injection port that is most distant from the axis, or may be formed to be adjacent to all the injection ports on an upstream or downstream side in the direction of the airflow.

Abstract: A premixing nozzle (800) includes swirler blades (300) for agitating combustion air inside a nozzle body (10). Each one end of the swirler blades (300) is fitted to the nozzle body (10), and the other end is connected to a hub (100), respectively. The tip portion (200a) of a fuel nozzle shaft (200) is conical, and a part of the tip portion (200a) is arranged inside the hub (100). A combustion gas flows into the hub (100) from a space between the tip portion (200a) of the fuel nozzle shaft (200) and the upstream end (100b) of the hub (100), passes through between the tip portion (200a) and the inner peripheral surface of the hub (100), and flows toward the downstream of the hub (100).

Abstract: A ring (100) for forming a cooling-air layer is attached to the liner (11) of a combustion chamber, to supply cooling air fed from a compressor from a cooling-air supply hole (41). During the operation of a gas turbine, the cooling air is allowed to flow from a gap (51) formed between the ring (100) and the inner surface of the liner (11) of the combustion chamber, to form the cooling-air layer on the inner surface of the liner (11) of the combustion chamber.

Abstract: A pilot nozzle diffusion-injects a fuel. A pilot swirler swirls a pilot air around the pilot nozzle. An air guide is arranged between the outer surface of the pilot nozzle and the pilot swirler. The air guide extends from the pilot swirler to a tip of the pilot nozzle. The air guide has a tip that protrudes beyond the tip of the pilot nozzle and this the tip of the air guide is bent away from a center of the pilot nozzle.

Abstract: A gas turbine combustor is improved to enhance a cooling effect and a flame holding ability to thereby reduce NOx generation. A combustor 13 comprises a double structure of an inner cylindrical member 13a and an enlarged outer cylindrical member 13b to thereby enlarge a diameter of a combustion zone. A pre-mixing nozzle 11 comprises an outer sleeve 23 of which front end is projected beyond a base plate 17 and a pre-mixing nozzle portion 21 of the inner side. Air flows between the outer sleeve 23 and the pre-mixing nozzle portion 21 for enhancing the cooling effect of the pre-mixing nozzle 11. High temperature gas inner and outer circulating flows 15, 16 are formed in the combustion zone to enhance the flame holding ability. Pilot fuel quantity, as so far necessitated for flame holding, is reduced and NOx quantity generated of the pilot fuel is reduced. The base plate 17 exposed to the high temperature gas is prevented from being overheated by the projected front portion of the pre-mixing nozzle 11.
