Abstract:
The invention relates to a can-combustor for a can-annular combustor arrangement in a gas turbine. The can combustor includes an essentially cylindrical casing with an axially upstream front panel and an axially downstream outlet end. The can combustor further includes a number of premixed burners, extending in an upstream direction from said front panel and having a burner exit, supported by this front panel, for supplying a fuel/air mixture into a combustion zone inside the casing. Up to four premixed burners are attached to the front panel in a substantially annular array. Each burner has a conical swirl generator and a mixing tube to induce a swirl flow of said fuel/air mixture.
