Abstract

A combustor includes a combustion chamber and an acoustic liner, wherein through-holes through are formed in a wall of the combustion chamber, a plurality of rows of the through-holes is arranged in a lengthwise direction of the combustor, the through-holes of a first through-hole row are shifted with respect to the through-holes of a second through-hole row so that centers of the through-holes of the first and second through-hole rows adjacent each other are staggered in the circumferential direction, cooling grooves are formed so as to avoid the through-holes inside that is sandwiched between the outer peripheral surface and the inner peripheral surface of the combustion chamber, and the cooling grooves include transverse cooling grooves extending in the circumferential direction between rows of the through-holes, and longitudinal cooling grooves extending in the lengthwise direction between the through-holes and connecting the transverse cooling grooves adjacent to each other.
