SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR IMPROVED COMBUSTOR TEMPERATURE UNIFORMITY

摘要

A combustor and a method for reducing a temperature gradient of a combustor component are provided. The combustor includes a coating applied to at least a portion thereof with the coating serving to alter the emissivity of the at least a portion to which it is applied. The method includes applying a coating on at least one of a combustor liner and a flow sleeve, wherein the coating alters the emissivity exhibited where applied.
