ABSTRACT:
A staged low NO.sub.x gas turbine combustor includes a refractory fibrous thermally insulatively lined primary combustion chamber, operating fuel-rich, and exhausting through a throat into a metallic secondary combustion chamber containing a fuel-lean secondary combustion zone in which combustion is completed. A radiation cooling zone is provided intermediate the throat and secondary combustion zone for cooling of the primary combustion products before quick quench in the secondary combustion zone. The fibrous lining of the primary combustion chamber is densified at its interior surface with a refractory such as zirconia or silicon carbide to inhibit flame erosion. The liner is wrapped with a supportive compliant blanket of fibrous refractory insulation. Air cooling of the metallic wall of the secondary chamber surrounding the radiation cooling zone is intensified relative to the remainder of the secondary combustion chamber.
