A system for damping combustor nozzle vibrations includes an end cover and a combustion chamber downstream from the end cover. First and second sets of nozzles extend axially between the end cover and the combustion chamber. The second set of nozzles is adjacent to the first set of nozzles. The system includes means for damping vibrations between the nozzles with a gap between the means for damping vibrations. A method for damping combustor nozzle vibrations includes flowing a working fluid through first and second sets of nozzles, wherein the first set of nozzles includes a damping member attached to and circumferentially surrounding at least a portion of the first set of nozzles, and contacting at least one nozzle in the second set of nozzles with the damping member on at least one nozzle in the first set of nozzles.

1. A system for damping combustor nozzle vibrations, comprising: a. an end cover that extends radially across at least a portion of the combustor;b. a combustion chamber downstream from the end cover;c. a first set of nozzles that extends axially between the end cover and the combustion chamber;d. a second set of nozzles that extends axially between the end cover and the combustion chamber, wherein the second set of nozzles is adjacent to the first set of nozzles;e. means for damping vibrations between the first and second sets of nozzles; andf. a gap between the means for damping vibrations and the second set of nozzles, wherein the gap extends continuously around the means for damping vibrations from upstream of the means for damping vibrations to the combustion chamber. 2. The system as in claim 1, wherein at least a portion of the first or second sets of nozzles is fixedly attached to the end cover. 3. The system as in claim 1, wherein the first set of nozzles has a different natural frequency than the second set of nozzles. 4. The system as in claim 1, wherein the means for damping vibrations between the first and second sets of nozzles is substantially tangential to the second set of nozzles. 5. The system as in claim 1, wherein at least one nozzle in the first or second sets of nozzles comprises a plurality of premixer tubes. 6. The system as in claim 1, wherein at least one nozzle in the first or second sets of nozzles comprises a center body, a shroud surrounding at least a portion of the center body, and an annular passage between the center body and the shroud. 7. The system as in claim 1, wherein the second set of nozzles circumferentially surrounds the first set of nozzles. 8. The system as in claim 1, wherein the second set of nozzles comprises a plurality of nozzles and further including means for damping vibrations between the plurality of nozzles in the second set of nozzles. 9. A system for damping combustor nozzle vibrations, comprising: a. an end cover that extends radially across at least a portion of the combustor;b. a combustion chamber downstream from the end cover;c. a first set of nozzles that extends axially between the end cover and the combustion chamber;d. a second set of nozzles that extends axially between the end cover and the combustion chamber, wherein the second set of nozzles is adjacent to the first set of nozzles;e. a first damping member attached to and circumferentially surrounding at least a portion of the first set of nozzles, wherein the first damping member damps vibrations between the first and second sets of nozzles; andf. a gap between the first damping member and the second set of nozzles, wherein the gap extends continuously around the first damping member from upstream of the first damping member to the combustion chamber. 10. The system as in claim 9, wherein at least a portion of the first or second sets of nozzles is fixedly attached to the end cover. 11. The system as in claim 9, wherein the damping member comprises at least one of a metal alloy or a cobalt coating. 12. The system as in claim 9, wherein the damping member is substantially tangential to the second set of nozzles. 13. The system as in claim 9, wherein the first set of nozzles has a different natural frequency than the second set of nozzles. 14. The system as in claim 9, wherein at least one nozzle in the first or second sets of nozzles comprises a plurality of premixer tubes. 15. The system as in claim 9, wherein at least one nozzle in the first or second sets of nozzles comprises a center body, a shroud surrounding at least a portion of the center body, and an annular passage between the center body and the shroud. 16. The system as in claim 9, wherein the second set of nozzles circumferentially surrounds the first set of nozzles. 17. The system as in claim 9, further comprising a second damping member attached to and circumferentially surrounding at least a portion of the second set of nozzles, wherein the first and second damping members damp vibrations between the first and second sets of nozzles. 18. The system as in claim 17, wherein the second set of nozzles comprises a plurality of nozzles and wherein the second damping member damps vibrations between the plurality of nozzles in the second set of nozzles. 19. A method for damping combustor nozzle vibrations, comprising: a. flowing a working fluid through a first set of nozzles, wherein the first set of nozzles includes a first damping member attached to and circumferentially surrounding at least a portion of the first set of nozzles, wherein a gap extends continuously around the first damping member from upstream of the first damping member to a combustion chamber;b. flowing the working fluid through a second set of nozzles, wherein the second set of nozzles is adjacent to and spaced apart from the first set of nozzles; andc. contacting at least one nozzle in the second set of nozzles with the first damping member on at least one nozzle in the first set of nozzles, wherein the first and second set of nozzles extend axially between an end cover and the combustion chamber downstream from the end cover. 20. The method as in claim 19, further comprising contacting the at least one nozzle in the second set of nozzles with the first damping member on the at least one nozzle in the first set of nozzles, wherein the second set of nozzles includes a second damping member attached to and circumferentially surrounding at least a portion of the second set of nozzles.
