Abstract
A combustor panel may include an attachment feature having a central longitudinal axis and extending from a cold side of the combustor panel. The attachment feature may include a tip portion and a base portion and the attachment feature may be configured to extend through a combustor shell such that the tip portion is disposed outward of a diffuser-facing side of the combustor shell. The base portion may be configured to be disposed between the cold side of the combustor panel and the diffuser-facing side of the combustor shell. The attachment feature may define a core passage extending from an inlet opening defined on the tip portion and extending partially through the attachment feature to terminate within the attachment feature. The attachment feature may also define an offshoot passage extending from the core passage to an outlet opening defined on the base portion.
