Abstract
In a method and an apparatus for influencing the wake of combustion chamber inserts, a passage (5) for guiding an additional air mass flow (3) is arranged in the inserts (2), which passage is connected to outlet openings (6) which are arranged in the part of the inserts located opposite to the main flow (1). The additional air mass flow (3) is, for example, extracted from the combustion chamber cooling air (4), is guided through the passage (5) and is blown out through the outlet openings (6) before the actual combustion zone in such a way that the recirculating flow region is minimized in the wake of the inserts (2).
