Abstract
The present disclosure is directed to an axial retention assembly for combustor components of a gas turbine engine. The axial retention assembly may include a combustor having a liner and a casing, with the casing including a flange spaced apart from the liner along an axial centerline of the combustor. Furthermore, the axial retention assembly may include a mounting plate having a first end removably coupled to the flange and a second end positioned inward from the casing in a radial direction. Moreover, the axial retention assembly may include a clamp removably coupled to the liner. Additionally, the axial retention assembly may include a tie rod coupled to the second end of the mounting plate and the clamp to reduce relative movement between the liner and the casing along the axial centerline.
