Abstract
The holes in a liner for an augmentor for a gas turbine engine are reoriented so that cooling air admitted into the gas path is directed tangentially to the liner wall instead of radially and the opening defines a scoop that enhances turbulence adjacent the outer diameter of the liner to improve its heat transfer characteristics, and the method of reorienting said holes.
