The disclosure relates combustor transition adapted to guide combustion gases in a hot gas flow path extending between a can combustor and a first stage of turbine in a gas turbine. The combustor transition includes a duct having an upstream end adapted for connection to the can combustor and an downstream end adapted for connection to a first stage of a turbine, wherein the downstream end comprises an outer wall, an inner wall, a first and a second side wall. The combustor transition is, characterized in that at least one side wall has a side wall extension, which is extending in a downstream direction beyond the outlet. Besides the combustor transition a gas turbine includes such a combustor transition, a method for retrofitting a gas turbine with such a combustor transition as well as a method for borescope inspection of a GT with such a combustor transition are disclosed.
A combustor transition adapted to guide combustion gases in a hot gas flow path extending between a gas turbine combustion chamber and a first stage of turbine, the combustor transition comprising a duct having an inlet at an upstream end adapted for connection to the combustion chamber and an outlet at a downstream end adapted for connection to a first stage of a turbine, wherein the downstream end comprises an outer wall, an inner wall, a first and a second side wall,
