Abstract
A gas turbine combustor of the present invention comprises a fuel injector for injecting a fuel toward a combustion chamber; a swirler which takes-in compressed air generated in a compressor and swirls the compressed air, in the vicinity of the fuel injector; a tubular guide member for guiding the compressed air taken-in from the swirler, to the combustion chamber; and a heat shield having a cylindrical portion located outward relative to the guide member; wherein the cylindrical portion has a purge hole; and air is introduced through the purge hole and is supplied to a space formed between the guide member and the cylindrical portion.
