Abstract

A system effective for dual utilization of cooling fluid in a gas turbine engine is provided. A cooling annulus is subject to a hot-temperature combustion flow received from a combustor basket and includes a liner including a feed channel to receive cooling fluid. A feed manifold is in fluid communication with feed channel to feed cooling fluid to a plurality of conduits in fluid communication with a plurality of exit orifices that is in fluid communication with a plurality of resonators. A distributor manifold includes a plurality of manifold sectors in fluid communication with a plurality of conduits arranged to convey cooling fluid. Some of the plurality of resonators operates with different amounts of cooling fluid. A group of the plurality of exit orifices is configured to supply an amount of cooling fluid appropriate for a resonator in fluid communication with the group of the plurality of exit orifices.
