Abstract
The present disclosure is directed to a combustor assembly for a gas turbine engine comprising a bulkhead wall extended generally along a radial direction relative to a combustor centerline and a mixer disposed concentric to the nozzle centerline. The bulkhead wall defines one or more openings therethrough adjacent to a combustion chamber. Each of the openings defines a nozzle centerline extended along a lengthwise direction. The mixer comprises a retaining wall extended along a radial direction relative to the nozzle centerline and coupled to the upstream side of the bulkhead wall. The mixer further comprises an annular shroud extended at least partially through the one or more openings of the bulkhead wall. The mixer defines a cooling passage through the retaining wall and the annular shroud. The cooling passage defines an inlet opening through the retaining wall and an outlet opening through the annular shroud.
