Abstract

The invention relates to a combustion chamber of a gas turbine, inside of which a supplied fuel is reacted with supplied combustion air in order to produce a working medium. The inside of the combustion chamber wall is provided with a lining formed from a number of heat shield elements. The or each heat shield element, together with the combustion chamber wall, forms an interior space that can be subjected to the action of a coolant. The aim of the invention is to provide a combustion chamber with a comparatively simple design that has a high system efficiency. To this end, the invention provides that a flow element is placed in the respective interior space while serving to effect a locally specific control of the flow of coolant.
