Abstract
A combustor includes a combustion liner that defines a combustion chamber and an outer sleeve spaced apart from the combustion liner, such that an annulus is defined between the combustion liner and the outer sleeve. The combustor further includes a fuel injection assembly having a boss coupled to at least one of the combustion liner and the outer sleeve. The boss includes an inner flange coupled to the combustion liner, an outer flange, and a body extending between the outer flange and the inner flange. The boss defines a cooling circuit having a post-impingement plenum defined in the inner flange between an inner wall of the inner flange and an impingement plate in cooling proximity to the inner wall; and a plurality of film cooling channels that are defined in the inner flange and fluidly couple the post-impingement plenum to the combustion chamber.
