This invention relates to combustion chambers of the kind employed in aircraft gas turbine engines. More particularly this invention relates to combustion chambers of the kind comprising an elongated outer casing having an air inlet at one end, and a flame tube mounted within the outer casing. The object of the pres-- '.ent invention is to provide improvedmeans for .supportingthe flame tubein the outer casing. Accordingto the present invention the flametube in a combustion chamber of the above-kind ,.is supported at each end from the outer casing with freedom for axial movement and radial ex- "pansion and means is provided for restraining at :a. single point on the flame tube, relative axial 'movement of the'flame tube and the outercasing. Preferably said'member also restrains relative "rotational movement of the flame tube. The said means conveniently comprises a spigot and socket carried one by the outer casing and the other by the flame tube.
A specific embodiment of the invention will now be described, by way of example, with reference to the accompanying drawings whereof,
Figure 1 is a longitudinal sectional view of a combustion chamberin accordance withthis invention,
.Figure2'is a view in the direction of arrow 2 A01? Figure 1, and
Figure '3 is. a fragmentary view of a part of- Figure 1 to an enlarged scale for the sake of clar- 1 ity.
'The combustion chamber, as shown in Figure 1, comprises a tubular outer casing 5 having an air inlet 6 at one end and a flame tube I mounted co-axially within the casing 5. The inlet 6 to the combustion chamber communicates with a compressor of the internal combustion turbine in known manner. ,The discharge endvof the combustion "chamber is supported "as hereinafter more fully described, from a'nozzle box casing 8 which also serves to support the nozzle box 9 by which the combustion products are conveyed from the chamber to the turbine.
A burner assembly generally indicated by the reference numeral ID is mounted in the inlet end of the casing 5. Fuel is supplied to this burner from which it emerges as an atomised spray directed towards the discharge end of the combustion chamber. The air entering the inlet 6 is divided into various streams, the primary air stream passing between vanes H to within the flame tube whilst the secondary air passes between the casing 5 and the flame tube and enters the latter through the holes 12. Tertiary radially withinthe outer casing.
a 2 airv flowing between the casing andthe'fla'me tube enters the latter through the openings I3.
The burner assembly I0 has a cylin'dricalportion' MLprojecting'into the inlet end of the flame tube 1. 1 The'lattercarries the vanes l I which im part a swirling motion to the primary air. The
"vanes H carryan inner shroud'liwhich fits on the cylindrical portion M of the burner'assembly, being slid axially thereon. In this way the flame'tube issu'pporte'd on the burner.
' The outlet end of the flame tube 1' is mounted in the outercasing 5 by means'of a-sheet metal band 16' which surrounds the outer surface' of the'flame tube and is secured thereto at one end.
The other endof the band I6 is bent outwardly to be clear of the flame tube and is provided with a number orslots [1 in a hitherto known manner 'to form resilient fingers which 'bear against aring secured to' the endof 'the'outer casing'B. In thisway the flame tube '1 is located radially i'n'the outer casingwith-freedom"for axial movementrelativelythereto. This: mountingalso' permits of theflame tube expanding A dowel pin, |8"is screwed 'nto 'a-"c'ollar H! which issecuredto the outer casing 5 towards the front end of it. :The pin extends across the space between the casing 5 and the'flame tube 1 and fits'as. a spigot in a'soeket 20- secured tothe .flame'tube I. The dowel pin l8 restrai'n's'the flame "tube. from both axial and rotary "movements relativelyto the casing! but imposesno restraint on expansion of the flame tube either radially or axially to each side, of the pin. 1"
It will be seen that with the presentinvention the flame tube 1 is supported at ,each..end and is located at a point along its length, this construction'permitting the flame tubeto expand freely both ,zradially and axially whilst being correctly located in the outer casing.
