Abstract

In one aspect, a combustor for a turbomachine engine includes a combustion chamber and a component in operable flow with the combustion chamber. The component has a porous structure that defines multiple channels, that are adapted to configure the component as a damper to reduce combustion dynamics of the combustor. In another aspect, a combustor of a turbomachine engine includes a diffuser, a combustor component positioned aft of the diffuser to receive cooling air therefrom, and a support structure in operable flow with the diffuser and the combustor component and positioned therebetween. The support structure has a porous structure that defines multiple channels, which are adapted to improve a backflow margin of the cooling air by reducing turbulence of the cooling air.
