Abstract

A gas turbine combustor is provided with a nozzle extension tube having an inclination outward in a diameter direction of a combustor inner cylinder and in a peripheral direction of the combustor inner cylinder. As a result, the premixed gas is transformed to a spiral flow passing into a combustion chamber while turning, i.e., an outward turning flow, thereby sufficiently mixing the premixed gas while the premixed gas is flowing in the combustion chamber.

Claims (5)

1. A gas turbine combustor comprising:

a combustor inner cylinder;

a mixed gas formation cylinder which has a nozzle ejecting pilot fuel and a nozzle ejecting main fuel, and which is disposed inside of the mixed gas formation cylinder; and

a mixed gas ejection extension section which is disposed at an outlet of the mixed gas formation cylinder while being inclined outward in a diameter direction of the combustor inner cylinder and in a peripheral direction of the combustor inner cylinder with respect to an axial direction of the combustor inner cylinder, and which ejects gas formed by mixing the pilot fuel with air and premixed gas formed by mixing the main fuel with the air.

2. The gas turbine combustor according to claim 1 , further comprising a combustor inner cylinder cooling unit which is provided on a portion on which at least premixed flames formed by a premixed flame formation nozzle or flames formed by the gas ejected from the mixed gas formation cylinder are struck against an inner periphery of the combustor inner cylinder.
