    摘要: A method (100) for detecting a burner failure in a gas turbine engine (10) that has a combustor (16) and a turbine (40) disposed downstream of the combustor (16). The combustor (16) has a plurality of burners (50) arranged annularly. The method (100) includes providing a plurality of temperature sensors (60) arranged annularly at an outlet (45) of the turbine (40); obtaining a plurality of temperature signals (62) from the plurality of temperature sensors (60); determining a plurality of validated temperature signals (64) from the plurality of temperature signals (62); determining a temperature focus (65) at least based on the plurality of validated temperature signals (64); improving the temperature focus (65) such that the temperature focus (65) is within a tolerance range (66); and performing at least one hazard protection action (90) at least when the temperature focus (65) crosses a predetermined threshold (68).

    摘要: A fuel injector (18) for a hydrogen combusting aircraft gas turbine engine has at least one air through-passage (44, 52) extending axially from a front face (40) to a rear face (54). The injector further comprises a fuel manifold (42) in communication with a hydrogen fuel feed line (38). A plurality of fuel outlets (64) is provided surrounding the or each air passage (44, 52) and an annular fuel gallery (76) is provided around each air through passage (44, 52) configured to supply the fuel outlets (64), the annular fuel gallery (76) communicating with the fuel manifold (42).
