Combustor

Abstract

The present invention relates to a gas turbine combustor comprising an air passage to supply air to the inside; and a fuel nozzle which is provided with an injection port to inject fuel and disposed in the air passage, wherein a turbulence producing means adjacent to the injection port of the fuel nozzle is provided in the air passage. Further, the present invention relates to a gas turbine combustor comprising an air passage to supply air to the inside; and a fuel nozzle which is provided with an injection port to inject fuel and disposed in the air passage, wherein a diffuser portion is provided in the air passage, and the diffuser portion causes the cross-sectional area of a part of the air passage positioned in the vicinity of the injection port to be smaller than that, of a downstream portion of the air passage positioned downstream from the injection port in the direction of the airflow. Thus, the mixing action of fuel and air can be enhanced, and combustion vibration can be prevented.
