Abstract

A combustion chamber with a jacket arranged around a principal axis of the combustion chamber, a ceramic tube that is arranged inside the jacket, wherein an intermediate layer is arranged between the jacket and the ceramic tube. The jacket is at least partially conical. The ceramic tube is under axial stress in the jacket along the principal axis. The ceramic tube is an assembly of multiple heat shield segments. The heat shield segments each have a hot side that is designed to come into contact with a hot medium, a cold side that is opposite the hot side and is oriented toward the jacket, and a circumferential rim between the hot side and the cold side. In the cold state, individual heat shield segments of a segment row have, on the rim, bearing surfaces that the adjoin the cold side and gaps that open toward the hot gas side.

Claims (29)

1 . A combustion chamber, comprising:

a jacket which is arranged around a principal axis of the combustion chamber, and

a ceramic tube which is arranged inside the jacket, and

an intermediate layer, wherein the intermediate layer is arranged between the jacket and the ceramic tube, and the jacket is at least partially conical, and the ceramic tube is tensioned axially into the jacket along the principal axis,

wherein the ceramic tube is an assembly of a plurality of heat shield segments, wherein the heat shield segments each have a hot side to which a hot medium can be applied, a cold side which is opposite the hot side and faces the jacket, and a circumferential rim between the hot side and the cold side, and, in a cold state, individual heat shield segments of a segment row have, on the circumferential rim, bearing surfaces that adjoin the cold side and gaps opening toward the hot side.

2 . The combustion chamber as claimed in claim 1 ,

wherein the gaps are sickle-shaped.

3 . The combustion chamber as claimed in claim 1 ,

wherein uneven end surfaces are provided between segment rows, and in a hot state, a form fit arises between individual heat shield segments in a circumferential direction.

4 . The combustion chamber as claimed in claim 1 ,

wherein the jacket is metallic.

5 . The combustion chamber as claimed in claim 1 ,

wherein the ceramic tube is composed of fireproof material.

6 . The combustion chamber as claimed in claim 1 ,

wherein the intermediate layer is a ceramic swellable mat.

7 . The combustion chamber as claimed in claim 1 ,

wherein the intermediate layer comprises spring and/or damping elements.

8 . The combustion chamber as claimed in claim 7 ,

wherein the spring and/or damping elements are ceramic.

9 . The combustion chamber as claimed in claim 7 ,

wherein the spring and/or damping elements are metallic.

10 . The combustion chamber as claimed in claim 1 ,

wherein the jacket has fastening means at the opening having the largest opening diameter, wherein the fastening means is useable to draw a counterpart against the opening.

11 . The combustion chamber as claimed in claim 1 ,

wherein the jacket comprises two conical partial jackets.

12 . The combustion chamber as claimed in claim 1 ,

wherein the ceramic tube is a full cylinder.

13 . The combustion chamber as claimed in claim 1 ,

wherein the ceramic tube is a full cone.
