    Abstract: A combustor includes a wall that defines a combustor interior to receive a fluid. The combustor also includes a slot that extends through the wall. The combustor also includes a resonator coupled to the wall. The resonator includes a resonator box defining a resonator interior between the wall and the resonator box, and a resonator segment disposed within the resonator box. The resonator segment includes a resonator neck having a resonator inlet and resonator outlet, the resonator inlet positioned within the resonator interior, the resonator outlet in flow communication with the combustor interior through the slot. The resonator neck defines a nonlinear flow path between the resonator inlet and the resonator outlet.

    Abstract: A combustion section of a gas turbine includes an annular combustion chamber, a burner arrangement upstream of the combustion chamber, an annular compressor diffusor, and an annular combustion casing. The combustion casing has an outer section wall, an upstream section wall, and an inner section wall. The inner section wall extends along the rotor axis and is arranged between the burner arrangement and the compressor diffusor. A shielding is attached to the inner section wall at the side facing the rotor axis with a free space in-between at least. An outer diffusor wall of the compressor diffusor extends in axial direction up to the upstream half of the shielding.

    Abstract: A gas turbine engine having a pre-swirler adjustability is presented. The pre-swirler includes a pre-swirler insert installed in a component enclosed by a cover. The component includes an inner compressor exit diffusor enclosed by an outer casing or a shaft cover enclosed by the inner compressor exit diffusor. The pre-swirler is adjustable by replacing the pre-swirler insert. An access port including an access window is arranged on the cover. The access port gives access to the pre-swirler insert for replacement through the access window. The access window includes a manhole or combustor assembly installation hole on the outer casing, or a cutout on the inner compressor exit diffusor. The access port allows adjusting the pre-swirler by replacing the pre-swirler insert installed in the component without lifting the cover enclosing the component.

    Abstract: A plug for brazing in a through-hole and for sealing a through-hole in a substrate of a gas turbine component. The plug has at least one elongate part and a head, wherein the head is made wider in cross section than the elongate part. The elongate part has a cross section which becomes smaller towards its end face along its longitudinal axis, wherein the elongate part has a peripheral region on its end face, wherein the peripheral region of the elongate part has a brazing filler metal. The head has a peripheral region on its end face, wherein the peripheral region of the head has a brazing filler metal, and the remaining and largest part of the elongate part and of the head has a mixture of brazing filler metal and a substrate material.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for operating an electrolysis plant having an electrolyser for generating hydrogen and oxygen as product gases, and a control unit. At least the hydrogen product gas, which also contains oxygen as an external gas, is compressed. According to the invention, the energy required in the purification of the foreign gas in the product gas of the electrolysis plant can be reduced by making optimum use of the heating of the product gas by the compression process, whereby the hydrogen product gas is subsequently fed to a recombiner which contains a catalyst in which the oxygen recombines with the hydrogen to form water. The invention also relates to an electrolysis plant designed for efficient product gas purification, by means of which hydrogen purified from oxygen as an impurity gas can be produced as a product gas.
