Combustor for a gas turbine engine

A combustor for a gas turbine engine, the gas turbine engine defining a longitudinal centerline extending in a longitudinal direction, a radial direction extending orthogonally outward from the longitudinal centerline, and a circumferential direction extending concentrically around the longitudinal centerline, the combustor comprising:

• a forward liner segment;
• an aft liner segment disposed downstream from the forward liner segment relative to a direction of flow through the combustor, the forward liner segment and the aft liner segment at least partially defining a combustion chamber;
• and
• an intermediate member disposed at least partially between the forward liner segment and the aft liner segment and extending in the circumferential direction, wherein the intermediate member comprises a plurality of spokes extending from the forward liner segment and the aft liner segment, each of the plurality of spokes including a first arm and a second arm, the first arm having a first arm non-linear portion at a first end of the first arm, the first arm non-linear portion extending from the forward liner segment radially outward, and a first arm linear portion at a second end of the first arm, the first arm linear portion extending radially outward from the first arm non-linear portion, the second end of the first arm being axially angled toward the second arm at the second end of the first arm, the second arm having a second arm non-linear portion at a first end of the second arm, the second arm non-linear portion extending from the aft liner segment radially outward, and a second arm linear portion at a second end of the second arm, the second arm linear portion extending radially outward from the second arm non-linear portion, the second end of the second arm being axially angled toward the first arm at the second end of the second arm such that the first end of the first arm and the first end of the second arm are axially spaced from each other, and the second end of the first arm and the second end of the second arm contact each other.
