Gas turbine combustor and gas turbine
The present invention reduces the concentration of thermal stress on a burner. A gas turbine combustor receiving compressed air from a compressor, mixing the compressed air with a fuel, burning the mixture to generate a combustion gas, and supplying the combustion gas to a turbine. The combustor includes: an inner cylinder internally forming a combustion chamber; an outer cylinder covering the inner cylinder and forming a cylindrical outer circumferential flow path between the inner and outer cylinders to allow the compressed air to flow; and a burner mounted on an end of the outer cylinder, which is positioned on an opposite side to a turbine side, and facing the combustion chamber. The burner includes a cylindrical base frame including a cavity distributing the fuel, and fuel nozzles circularly arranged as viewed from the combustion chamber and connected to the cavity. When viewed from the combustion chamber, slits extending radially are formed in the base frame such that each separate the circumferentially adjacent fuel nozzles from each other.
1. A gas turbine combustor that receives compressed air discharged from a compressor, mixes the compressed air with a fuel, burns a mixture of the compressed air and the fuel to generate a combustion gas, and supplies the generated combustion gas to a turbine, the gas turbine combustor comprising:
an inner cylinder configured to form a combustion chamber therein;
an outer cylinder configured to cover the inner cylinder and form a cylindrical outer circumferential flow path between the outer cylinder and the inner cylinder to allow the compressed air to flow; and
a burner that is mounted on an end of the outer cylinder, the end being positioned on an opposite side to a side where the turbine is located, and that faces the combustion chamber, wherein
the burner includes a base frame and a plurality of fuel nozzles, the base frame having a cylindrical shape and including a cavity configured to distribute the fuel, the fuel nozzles being circularly arranged as viewed from the combustion chamber and connected to the cavity, and
when viewed from the combustion chamber, a plurality of slits extending radially are formed in the base frame such that each separate the circumferentially adjacent fuel nozzles from each other, wherein
the base frame includes a plurality of through-holes that are radially penetrating and circumferentially arranged, and
the slits respectively extend from an end face of the base frame, the end face being positioned on a side where the combustion chamber is located, and are connected to the through-holes.
2. The gas turbine combustor according to claim 1 , wherein
a circumferentially extended hollow is formed in an outer circumferential surface of the base frame.
3. The gas turbine combustor according to claim 1 , wherein
the fuel nozzles each include a cylindrical air heat insulation layer.
4. A gas turbine comprising:
a compressor configured to compress air to generate compressed air;
the gas turbine combustor according to claim 1 , that receives the compressed air discharged from the compressor, mixes the compressed air with a fuel, and burns a mixture of the compressed air and the fuel to generate a combustion gas; and
a turbine configured to be driven by the combustion gas supplied from the gas turbine combustor.
