Abstract
A combustor includes a fuel supply unit defining on a radially inner side of an axis an inner peripheral side space into which inert gas is introduced and which is configured to supply the inert gas to a combustion cylinder, and defining on a radially outer side an outer peripheral side space into which the inert gas is introduced and which is configured to supply the inert gas to the combustion cylinder; an inner peripheral side oxygen supply unit that is configured to supply oxygen to the inner peripheral side space; an outer peripheral side oxygen supply unit that is configured to supply oxygen to the outer peripheral side space; and an adjustment unit that is configured to adjust the relative amounts of the oxygen supplied by the inner peripheral side oxygen supply unit and the oxygen supplied by the outer peripheral side oxygen supply unit.
