Abstract
A gas turbine combustor comprising a plurality of cooling air passages (27A) through which bled pressurized air flows from downstream of a combustion gas flow toward upstream, the plurality of cooling air passages (27A) being disposed in a wall portion (26) side by side and aligned in a flow direction of a combustion gas; wherein the plurality of cooling air passages (27A) are divided via a passage transition groove portion (33) into upstream cooling air passages (27A1) disposed closer to bled pressurized air inlet holes (30a) and downstream cooling air passages (27A2) disposed closer to bled pressurized air outlet holes (30b), and center lines (C1) of the upstream cooling air passages are non-collinear with center lines (C2) of the downstream cooling air passages.
