Abstract

An annular grommet is provided for a wall assembly of a combustor section of a gas turbine engine. The annular grommet includes a wall that at least partially defines a chamber. A wall assembly within a gas turbine engine includes a liner panel with a hot side and a cold side. The wall assembly also includes an annular grommet with a passage wall and a flange wall transverse to the passage wall. The annular grommet includes a chamber therein. A method of cooling a wall assembly within a gas turbine engine includes injecting air through a chamber in an annular grommet.
