ABSTRACT:
A high degree efficiency in a gas turbine is assured by imposing a rifling swirl on the operating medium. The gas turbine has a turbine shaft and a number of burners that discharge into a combustion chamber configuration. The primary burner axis of each burner is tilted relative to the primary axis of the turbine shaft such that a defined swirl is created in the operating medium. An especially effective transfer of momentum from the flowing operating medium AM to a rotor blade configuration, particularly in full-load operation of the gas turbine, is thus attained without additional structural parts between the combustion chamber configuration and the rotor blade configuration.
