Abstract
In a gas turbine combustion chamber in which for cooling purposes use is made of combinations of convective heat transfer mechanisms whose basic principle is the elimination of heat by flow, the transition from the convective cooling channel (4) to the plenum upstream of the burners (5) is in the form of a small diffuser (6). The total pressure loss in the entire system is thereby reduced, thus leading to improved efficiency with minimum emissions.
