The invention relates to a method for damping thermo-acoustic oscillations via a resonator having a resonator volume with thermo-acoustic oscillations induced in a cavity inclined to thermo-acoustic oscillations, and at least some of the thermo-acoustic oscillations being output from the cavity and being input into the resonator volume, with damping oscillations produced in the resonator volume, which are matched to the thermo-acoustic oscillations, with at least some of the damping oscillations being input into the cavity such that the damping oscillations and the thermo-acoustic oscillations overlap in an overlap area, and the oscillations being largely cancelled out. The invention relates to an apparatus for damping thermo-acoustic oscillations in a cavity, comprising a resonator with a resonator volume and a cavity. The invention also relates to a combustion chamber together with a method and an apparatus according to the invention, and to a gas turbine having a combustion chamber.

Method and device for damping thermoacoustic oscillations, in particular in a gas turbine

A combustion chamber according to the invention, in particular for a gas turbine, includes at least one combustion chamber wall through which cooling fluid flows and at least one resonator device. The combustion chamber according to the invention is distinguished in that the resonator device is integrated into the combustion chamber wall in such a way that it has the cooling fluid flow passing there through.
