    Abstract: An apparatus relating to a component for a turbine engine which generates a hot gas fluid flow, and provides a cooling fluid flow. The component having a wall separating the hot gas fluid flow from the cooling fluid flow and having a heated surface along which the hot gas fluid flow flows and a cooled surface facing the cooling fluid flow. At least one cooling hole including a connecting passage extending from a first inlet located at the cooled surface, to a first outlet located at the heated surface, the connecting passage defining a downstream flow direction from the first inlet to the first outlet, the connecting passage comprising a metering section fluidly coupled to the first inlet and defining a metered centerline and a diffusing section, downstream of the metering section, defining a diffused centerline, and fluidly coupling the metering section to the first outlet.

    Abstract: A combustor for a gas turbine includes a ceramic matrix composite (CMC) dome including a swirler opening therethrough with a flare interface surface surrounding the swirler opening, a swirler assembly including (a) a secondary swirler having a threaded flare attachment portion, and (b) a flare having (i) a threaded secondary swirler attachment portion, and (ii) a dome interface wall that interfaces with the flare interface surface of the CMC dome, and a swirler-dome attachment member. The flare is connected to the secondary swirler via the threaded flare attachment portion and the threaded secondary swirler attachment portion, and the swirler-dome attachment member applies a force to the CMC dome to engage the dome interface wall and the flare interface surface so as to connect the CMC dome and the swirler assembly.
