Abstract
In a gas turbine, a plurality of burners, which are arranged concentrically to the rotational axis in a regular arrangement, each directing hot gas through an associated combustion chamber outlet into a turbine, at the inlet of which a second plurality of stator blades are arranged in a ring, uniformly spaced apart around the rotational axis. Cooling openings are provided, which are distributed over the circumference, through which cooling air is injected into the hot gas flow at the combustion chamber outlet. An improvement of the flow conditions in the hot gas is achieved by the cooling openings being divided into first cooling opening groups and second cooling opening groups. The arrangement of the first cooling opening groups corresponds to the arrangement of the stator blades, and in that the arrangement of the second cooling opening groups corresponds to the regular arrangement of the burners.
