Combustion liner assembly

A combustion liner assembly comprising:

• a metal liner having a hot side and a cold side, the metal liner including a plurality of radially extending liner connection members extending from the hot side thereof and a plurality of circumferentially extending liner connection members each extending from a respective radially extending liner connection member;
• and
• a plurality of ceramic matrix composite (CMC) liner tiles for providing a heat shield for the metal liner, each of the plurality of CMC liner tiles including a radially extending liner tile connection member extending from a respective CMC liner tile and a circumferentially extending liner tile connection member extending from the radially extending liner tile connection member, the radially extending liner tile connection member and the circumferentially extending liner tile connection member being configured to engage the plurality of radially extending liner connection members and the plurality of circumferentially extending liner connection members of the metal liner to attach the respective CMC liner tile to the metal liner free from radial fasteners exposed to hot gases on the hot side of the metal liner and to allow radial movement and axial movement between the metal liner and the respective CMC liner tile to accommodate different thermal conductivities of the plurality of CMC liner tiles and of the metal liner,
• wherein the circumferentially extending liner tile connection member of each of the plurality of CMC liner tiles abuts the hot side of the metal liner, and each of the plurality of circumferentially extending liner connection members of the metal liner abuts an outer radial surface of the respective CMC liner tile.
