Abstract
An acoustic damper for a rotary machine includes at least one wall, at least one cooling air inlet, at least one outlet, and at least one cap. The at least one wall extends from a back side of a burner front panel such that the at least one wall partially defines a dampening chamber. The at least one cooling air inlet is defined within the back side of the front panel and is configured to channel a flow of cooling air into the dampening chamber. The at least one outlet is defined within the back side of the front panel and is configured to channel the flow of cooling air out of the dampening chamber. The at least one cap is positioned at least partially over the at least one cooling air inlet and is configured to reduce a velocity of the flow of cooling air within the dampening chamber.
