Abstract
A turbomachine component, gas turbine combustor component, or burner component, including a body with a first, second and third section, the sections being integrally formed with another and built from a same material, and an end face of the first section of the body. The end face, during operation, is exposed to a first temperature higher than a second temperature of a cooling fluid. The second section is located between the first and third section and is formed in parts as a lattice structure. The lattice structure has a plurality of rod-shaped struts, wherein each of a first set of the plurality of struts has a first end, the first end being connected to the first section, and a void penetrated by the plurality of struts, the void providing at least one fluid passage via which the cooling fluid is guidable through an interior of the second section during operation.
