A combustion liner having enhanced heat transfer over at least a portion of the liner is disclosed. The combustion liner comprises, amongst other features, an outer surface wherein at least a region of the outer surface is textured in a substantially uniform pattern such that the surface area exposed to a passing cooling medium is increased, thereby increasing the heat transfer through the combustion liner. Multiple embodiments of textured patterns are also disclosed.

What is claimed is: 1. A combustion liner having enhanced heat transfer capabilities, said liner comprising: a first end, a second end, and a generally annular wall about a centerline, said generally annular wall having an inner surface, and an outer surface, thereby establishing a thickness therebetween; a plurality of liner stops fixed to said outer surface at a first distance from a said first end, said liner stops having a length and a width and extend radially outward from said outer surface; and, wherein at least a region of said outer surface from proximate said first end to proximate said liner stops is textured, where said region has a substantially uniform pattern comprising a plurality of intersecting grooves located in said outer surface of said generally annular wall and having an angle therebetween with each groove also having a depth extending into said thickness. 2. The combustion liner of claim 1 wherein said angle ranges between 30 degrees and 60 degrees. 3. The combustion liner of claim 1 wherein said depth extends up to 0.010 inches from said outer surface. 4. The combustion liner of claim 1 wherein said substantially uniform pattern contains flat portions along said outer surface opposite said grooves. 5. The combustion liner of claim 1 wherein said substantially uniform pattern contains peak portions along said outer surface opposite said grooves. 6. The combustion liner of claim 1 wherein said pattern is incorporated into said outer surface by applying a pressure to a tool having said pattern and directing said tool across said liner outer surface. 7. The combustion liner of claim 1 wherein said pattern is incorporated into said outer surface by cutting said pattern into said liner outer surface. 8. The combustion liner of claim 1 wherein a cooling medium passes over said textured pattern on said outer surface, said cooling medium having a lower temperature than combustion gases passing through said liner. 9. The combustion liner of claim 8 wherein said cooling medium is selected from the group comprising compressed air, fuel, fuel-air premixture, and steam. 10. A combustion liner having enhanced heat transfer capabilities, said liner comprising: a first end, a second end, and a generally annular wall about a centerline, said generally annular wall having an inner surface, and an outer surface, thereby establishing a thickness therebetween; a plurality of liner stops fixed to said outer surface at a first distance from said first end, said liner stops having a length and a width and extend radially outward from said outer surface; and, wherein at least a region of said outer surface from proximate said first end to proximate said liner stops is textured in a substantially uniform pattern, said pattern comprising a plurality of intersecting grooves that form an angle therebetween with the plurality of intersecting grooves extending only partially into said thickness such that said inner surface maintains a generally annular shape. 11. The combustion liner of claim 10 wherein said angle ranges between 30 degrees and 60 degrees. 12. The combustion liner of claim 11 wherein said grooves extend to a depth of up to 0.010 inches from said outer surface into said thickness. 13. The combustion liner of claim 12 wherein said substantially uniform pattern contains flat portions along said outer surface opposite said grooves. 14. The combustion liner of claim 12 wherein said substantially uniform pattern contains peak portions along said outer surface opposite said grooves. 15. The combustion liner of claim 10 wherein said pattern is incorporated into said outer surface by applying a pressure to a tool having said pattern and directing said tool across said liner outer surface. 16. The combustion liner of claim 10 wherein said pattern is incorporated into said outer surface by cutting said pattern into said liner outer surface. 17. The combustion liner of claim 10 wherein a cooling medium passes over said textured pattern on said outer surface, said cooling medium having a lower temperature than combustion gases passing through said liner. 18. The combustion liner of claim 17 wherein said cooling medium is selected from the group comprising compressed air, fuel-air premixture, and steam. 19. A method of providing a combustion liner having enhanced heat transfer capabilities comprising the steps: placing a substantially uniform pattern, in order to create a textured surface, into an outer surface of a combustion liner, said pattern comprising a plurality of intersecting grooves each having an angle therebetween and extending a depth into said outer surface and said combustion liner having a first end, a second end, and a generally annular wall about a centerline, said generally annular wall having, a thickness between an inner surface and said outer surface; placing said combustion liner in a gas turbine engine and securing said combustion liner to a combustor by a plurality of liner stops located along said outer surface of said liner; directing a flow of combustion gases through said combustion liner; and, directing a flow of a cooling medium over said outer surface and across said substantially uniform pattern, where said flow of cooling medium undergoes turbulence from said textured surface, thereby enhancing the cooling of said combustion liner.
