    Abstract: In one aspect, a combustor for a turbomachine engine includes a combustion chamber and a component in operable flow with the combustion chamber. The component has a porous structure that defines multiple channels, that are adapted to configure the component as a damper to reduce combustion dynamics of the combustor. In another aspect, a combustor of a turbomachine engine includes a diffuser, a combustor component positioned aft of the diffuser to receive cooling air therefrom, and a support structure in operable flow with the diffuser and the combustor component and positioned therebetween. The support structure has a porous structure that defines multiple channels, which are adapted to improve a backflow margin of the cooling air by reducing turbulence of the cooling air.

    Abstract: A swirler-ferrule assembly includes a radial swirler, a ferrule, a fuel nozzle, and a surface feature. The radial swirler includes a primary swirler vane having a primary air passage and a secondary swirler vane having a secondary air passage. The ferrule may be connected to the radial swirler. The surface feature may be located on the primary swirler vane and/or the ferrule. The surface feature may be configured to direct an air flow through the primary air passage away from a recirculation zone located upstream of the primary swirler vane. The surface feature has a trailing end and a distal end, and the fuel nozzle is axially aligned with the trailing end of the surface feature or is located axially downstream of the trailing end of the surface feature. The surface feature may have a plurality of grooves.
