Brennkammer sowie Verfahren zur Dampfkühlung einer Brennkammer

A combustion chamber has an outer wall for mechanically supporting the combustion chamber and an inner wall forming an internal space through which combustion gases flow from a chamber inlet to a chamber outlet. An envelope is defined between the inner and outer walls and an intermediate wall divides the envelope into inner and outer cooling spaces. The cooling steam enters the outer space and exits the inner space, and the intermediate wall has a plurality of orifices through which cooling steam passes for impact cooling the inside of the inner wall. The inner wall is imperforate so that the cooling steam does not enter the internal combustion chamber space. The cooling steam flow in accordance with the invention increases cooling efficiency.
