A transition piece aft frame assembly is provided, and includes a transition piece aft frame and a heat shield. The transition piece aft frame has an aft face. At least a portion of the aft face is exposed to an exhaust gas stream. The heat shield is connected to the transition piece aft frame. The heat shield is oriented to generally deflect the exhaust gas stream away from the aft face of the transition piece aft frame.

A transfer tube for use in a late lean injection system of a combustor, wherein the combustor includes an inner radial wall, which defines a primary combustion chamber downstream of a primary fuel nozzle, and an outer radial wall, which surrounds the inner radial wall forming a flow annulus therebetween, the outer radial wall including a late lean nozzle, the transfer tube including flow directing structure that defines a fluid passageway. At a first end, the flow directing structure may include an inlet and attachment means that attach the transfer tube to the late lean nozzle. The flow directing structure may have a configuration such that the fluid passageway spans the flow annulus and positions the outlet at a desirable injection point in the inner radial wall.

A combustor includes an end cap having an upstream surface axially separated from a downstream surface. A cap shield circumferentially surrounds the upstream and downstream surfaces, tubes extend from the upstream surface through the downstream, and a plenum is inside the end cap. A first baffle extends radially across the plenum toward the cap shield, and a plate extends radially inside the plenum between the first baffle and the upstream surface. A method for supplying fuel to a combustor includes flowing a working fluid through tubes, flowing a fuel into a plenum between upstream and downstream surfaces, radially distributing the fuel along a first baffle, and axially flowing the fuel across a plate that extends radially inside the plenum.

A system includes a gas turbine combustor, which includes a combustion liner disposed about a combustion region, a flow sleeve disposed about the combustion liner, an air passage between the combustion liner and the flow sleeve, and a structure extending between the combustion liner and the flow sleeve. The structure obstructs an airflow path through the air passage. The gas turbine combustor also includes an aerodynamic wake reducer configured to redirect an airflow around the structure to reduce a wake region downstream of the structure.

A fuel supply system for a gas turbine includes a combustion section, a transition duct downstream from the combustion section, a turbine section downstream from the transition duct, and a first stage of stationary vanes circumferentially arranged inside the turbine section. A hot gas path is between the transition duct and the stationary vanes, and a fuel injector provides fluid communication into the hot gas path. A method of supplying fuel to a gas turbine includes combusting a first fuel in a combustion chamber to produce combustion gases, flowing the combustion gases through a transition duct to a hot gas path, and flowing the combustion gases through the hot gas path to a first stage of stationary vanes in a turbine section. The method further includes injecting a second fuel into the hot gas path downstream from the transition duct and upstream from the first stage of stationary vanes.

A turbomachine combustor nozzle includes a monolithic nozzle component having a plate element and a plurality of nozzle elements. Each of the plurality of nozzle elements includes a first end extending from the plate element to a second end. The plate element and plurality of nozzle elements are formed as a unitary component. A plate member is joined with the nozzle component. The plate member includes an outer edge that defines first and second surfaces and a plurality of openings extending between the first and second surfaces. The plurality of openings are configured and disposed to register with and receive the second end of corresponding ones of the plurality of nozzle elements.

A system for supplying fuel to a combustor includes a combustion chamber and a fuel nozzle that provides fluid communication into the combustion chamber. A plurality of passages circumferentially arranged around the combustion chamber provide fluid communication into the combustion chamber. A liquid fuel plenum provides fluid communication to the plurality of passages. A baffle circumferentially surrounds at least a portion of the liquid fuel plenum inside the plurality of passages and forms a plurality of lobes around the liquid fuel plenum.

A combustor includes first and second annular casings with a joint between the first and second annular casings. A flow sleeve surrounds a combustion chamber to define an annular passage, and an annular shield inside the first annular casing extends downstream from the joint and prevents a working fluid flowing through the annular passage from contacting at least a portion of the first annular casing. A method for reducing thermal stresses in a combustor includes flowing a working fluid from a compressor through an annular passage between a combustion chamber and a flow sleeve inside the combustor, shielding the working fluid flowing through the annular passage from contact with at least a portion of a joint between first and second annular casings, and shielding the working fluid flowing through the annular passage from contact with at least a portion of the first annular casing downstream from the joint.
