Abstract
A combustor thermal shield is provided. The combustor thermal shield may have a combustor panel that may protect a surface of a combustor from heat and/or flame. The combustor thermal shield may be mounted to the combustor by an attachment stud formed as a unitary body with the combustor panel. The combustor panel and the attachment stud may be made of different materials. A transition region may be disposed between the attachment stud and the combustor thermal shield and formed as a unitary body with the combustor panel and the attachment stud. The transition region may be made of a mixture of the different materials. The mixture may vary according to a gradient as a function of proximity to the combustor panel and the attachment stud.
