ABSTRACT:
A cladded combustion chamber construction is disclosed in which the cladd tiles can be assembled and replaced without the necessity of disassembling the structural wall of the combustion chamber. The combustion chamber has a generally cylindrical wall with external and internal surfaces bounding the combustion chamber and has a plurality of cladding tiles located on one of the external and internal surfaces of the wall. To attach the cladding tiles to the combustion chamber structure, a plurality of channel shaped attaching devices are utilized extending in a generally circumferential direction around the wall of the combustion chamber and having a portion extending generally parallel to the wall, but spaced from the wall. The portion extending parallel to the wall of the combustion chamber has a circumferentially extending cut out portion whose circumferential length is slightly greater than the width of a cladding tile. The channel shaped attaching devices are spaced axially along the wall of the combustion chamber and are spaced apart a distance slightly greater than a length of a cladding tile. In order to attach the cladding tile to the combustion chamber wall, it is merely necessary to place one end of the tile in one of the channel members and to pass the other end of the tile through the circumferential cut out of the other attaching channel.
