Abstract
A combustor for a gas turbine engine includes a forward liner segment and an aft liner segment positioned downstream from the forward liner segment relative to a direction of flow through the combustor. The forward and aft liner segments at least partially define a combustion chamber. Furthermore, the combustor includes a dilution slot frame positioned between the forward and aft liner segments along a longitudinal centerline of the gas turbine engine. Moreover, the dilution slot frame defines a plurality of dilution slots spaced apart from each other along a circumferential direction of the gas turbine engine such that the plurality of dilution slots provides an annular ring of dilution air to the combustion chamber.
