Abstract
A combustor liner includes a wall having an outboard surface and an opposite inboard surface. A plurality of first holes are inclined through the wall in a multihole pattern to channel cooling fluid therethrough to form a cooling film layer along the inboard surface. A second hole extends perpendicularly through the wall within the multihole pattern to form a shadow along the inboard surface devoid of the first holes. A transition hole extends through the wall in the shadow at a greater inclination than the first holes for cooling the wall at the shadow.
