ABSTRACT:
A combustor, for a gas turbine engine, employing regenerative combustor cooling. The combustion gas flow direction extends generally longitudinally aft of the combustor fuel nozzle. A coolant flowpath between the combustor casing and the combustor liner has: 1) a longitudinally aft inlet in fluid communication with a source of compressor-derived cooling air, of lower temperature and higher pressure than diffused air from the combustor diffuser; and 2) a longitudinally forward outlet in fluid communication with the combustor fuel nozzle for "spent" cooling air to be used for combustion.
