Abstract

A combustor component according to at least one embodiment of the present invention includes a cylindrical body which internally includes a combustion chamber, and includes a weld part where a plurality of through holes opening to the combustion chamber are formed, and a housing which is disposed on an outer circumferential side of the cylindrical body to cover a part of the weld part, and defines an acoustic damping space communicating with the combustion chamber via at least one of the through holes. The plurality of through holes in the weld part has a formation density which is higher in a first region of the weld part covered with the housing than in a second region of the weld part positioned outside the housing.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

a housing which is disposed on an outer circumferential side of the cylindrical body to cover a part of the weld part, and defines an acoustic damping space communicating with the combustion chamber via at least one of the through holes,
wherein the weld part includes a first region covered with the housing and a second region positioned outside the housing, the plurality of through holes being formed in the first region at a higher density than in the second region.

2. The combustor component according to claim 1 ,
wherein the housing extends along a circumferential direction of the cylindrical body, and
wherein the weld part at least partially extends along an axial direction of the cylindrical body.

3. The combustor component according to claim 1 ,
wherein the acoustic damping space communicates with the combustion chamber via the through holes disposed in the first region of the weld part, and a plurality of acoustic holes disposed separately from the through holes in the cylindrical body and opening to the combustion chamber.

4. The combustor component according to claim 3 ,
wherein at least some of the plurality of through holes are arranged at a first pitch along an axial direction of the cylindrical body, and
wherein at least some of the plurality of acoustic holes are arranged at a second pitch along the axial direction, the second pitch being not less than 70% and not greater than 130% of the first pitch.

5. The combustor component according to claim 1 ,
wherein the cylindrical body forms a plurality of cooling passages at intervals along a circumferential direction of the cylindrical body, the cooling passages extending along an axial direction of the cylindrical body inside a wall constituting the cylindrical body.

6. The combustor component according to claim 5 ,
wherein the acoustic damping space communicates with the combustion chamber via the through holes disposed in the first region of the weld part, and a plurality of acoustic holes disposed separately from the through holes, and
wherein the plurality of acoustic holes are formed between two of the cooling passages adjacent to each other in the circumferential direction.

7. The combustor component according to claim 5 ,
wherein the cooling passages include: a first pair of the cooling passages arranged across the weld part in the circumferential direction; and a second pair of cooling passages adjacent to each other in the circumferential direction, and
wherein the first pair of the cooling passages is arranged in the circumferential direction at a first interval larger than a second interval at which the second pair of the cooling passages is arranged in the circumferential direction.

8. The combustor component according to claim 1 ,
wherein the plurality of through holes are formed only in the first region.

9. A combustor component, comprising:
a cylindrical body forming a plurality of weld parts for welding, along an axial direction, circumferential end portions of a plurality of plate-like sections divided in a circumferential direction, respectively and internally forming a tubular combustion chamber; and
a housing covering the cylindrical body from an outer circumferential side along the circumferential direction,
wherein, in each of the plurality of plate-like sections, the cylindrical body forms a plurality of acoustic hole rows in the circumferential direction each in which a plurality of acoustic holes opening to a combustor are disposed in a row in the axial direction,
wherein the housing covers the plurality of acoustic hole rows, as well as covers a part of a corresponding one of the plurality of plate-like sections and a part of a corresponding one of the plurality of weld parts, and defines an acoustic damping space for damping a combustion oscillation in communication with the combustion chamber via the acoustic hole rows, and wherein, in the part of the corresponding one of the plurality of weld parts covered with the housing, a plurality of through holes are formed along the axial direction.

10. A combustor, comprising:
a burner for combusting fuel; and
the combustor component according to claim 1 .

11. A gas turbine, comprising:
a compressor for generating compressed air;
the combustor according to claim 10 ; and
a turbine which is rotary driven by a combustion gas generated by the combustor.

12. A manufacturing method for a combustor component, the method comprising:
a step of forming a cylindrical body internally including a combustion chamber, by joining a plurality of sections via a weld part;
a step of forming a plurality of through holes opening to the combustion chamber in the weld part; and
a step of disposing a housing on an outer circumferential side of the cylindrical body to cover a part of the weld part, the housing defining an acoustic damping space communicating with the combustion chamber via at least one of the through holes,
wherein the weld part includes a first region covered with the housing and a second region positioned outside the housing, the plurality of through holes being formed in the first region at a higher density than in the second region.
