Abstract:
A grommet may define a dilution hole in a combustor panel. The grommet may comprise a set of upstream features such as, for example, a first inlet leading into a first plurality of passages with the first plurality of passages each having a first outlet directed towards an inner diameter of the grommet. A set of perimeter features may include a second inlet leading into a convective cooling passage having a plurality of internal cooling features. The convective cooling passage may further lead into a second plurality of passages each having a second outlet extending about the inner diameter of the grommet in a circumferential direction A set of downstream features may include a third inlet leading to a third plurality of passages each having a third outlet directed towards an outer diameter of the grommet.
