Abstract

This invention relates to the construction of the fuel nozzle guide of a turbine power plant and provides sealing while allowing relative movement between the fuel nozzle and combustion liner, and includes the judicious location of cooling passages that permit constant cooling and purging for preventing local hot spots resulting from unwanted flame holding. PAC CROSS REFERENCE This invention is related to the invention disclosed in copending patent application entitled FUEL NOZZLE GUIDE HEAT SHIELD FOR A GAS TURBINE ENGINE, filed by S. C. Peterson, L. W. Stevens and I. S. Tanrikut on even date and assigned to the same assignee of this application.
