Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to a wall element (60A-G) for a wall structure of a gas turbine engine combustor (15). The wall element has an inner, in use, hot surface (32), and an outer, in use, cooler surface (41). A plurality of projections (40) is provided on the outer surface (41) to facilitate heat transfer to a coolant flow. The wall element (60A-G) comprises a means (64-64G) to direct more coolant flow at a hot-spot on an adjacent tile (60B) than the remainder of the adjacent tile (60B) and thereby reducing the thermal gradient across the adjacent tile (60B).
