Abstract: A system includes an annular combustor having a housing disposed about a head end chamber upstream of a combustion chamber. The annular combustor is configured to extend circumferentially about a rotational axis of a gas turbine engine, and an axis of the combustion chamber is acutely angled relative to the rotational axis. The system also includes a holder coupled to the housing and extending through the head end chamber in an axial direction relative to the axis of the combustion chamber. The holder includes a first receptacle configured to hold a first fuel nozzle, and the holder comprises a first fuel passage extending to the first receptacle.

Abstract: A combustor includes a combustion chamber having an outer liner and an inner liner and defining a first combustion zone, an annular dome coupled to the outer liner and the inner liner, and a trapped vortex cavity extending from at least one of the outer liner or the inner liner and defining a second combustion zone. A plurality of first mixing assemblies are disposed through the annular dome, and operably inject a first fuel-air mixture into the first combustion zone. A plurality of second mixing assemblies are disposed at the trapped vortex cavity, and operably inject a second fuel-air mixture into the second combustion zone defined in the trapped vortex cavity to produce combustion gases. A steam system includes a steam injector in fluid communication with the trapped vortex cavity. The steam injector operably injects steam into the trapped vortex cavity and the steam mixes with the combustion gases.

Abstract: An engine can utilize a combustor to combust fuel to drive the engine. A fuel nozzle assembly can supply fuel to the combustor for combustion or ignition of the fuel. The fuel nozzle assembly can include a swirler and a fuel nozzle to supply a mixture of fuel and air for combustion. The fuel nozzle assembly can be configured to increase lateral provision of fuels to reduce flame scrubbing on combustor liners for the combustor.

Abstract: A liner for a combustor in a gas turbine engine and a related method. The liner includes a liner body having a cold side and a hot side. The liner includes a dilution passage having a concatenated geometry extending through the liner body. The dilution passage is configured (i) to integrate a first dilution air flow flowing through the dilution passage from the cold side to the hot side and a second dilution air flow flowing through the dilution passage from the cold side to the hot side into an integrated dilution air flow, and (ii) to inject the integrated dilution air flow into a core primary combustion zone of the combustor to attain a predetermined combustion state of the combustor.

Abstract: A liner for a combustor in a gas turbine engine. The liner includes a liner body having a cold side and a hot side, a dilution opening extending through the liner body, a first passage positioned adjacent the dilution opening and extending through the liner body from the cold side to the hot side, and a second passage positioned adjacent the dilution opening and extending through the liner body from the cold side to the hot side, the second passage being separate from the first passage and being located on a diametrically opposing side of the dilution opening from the first passage. A dilution flow flows through the dilution opening from the cold side to the hot side and a secondary flow flows through the first passage and the second passage from the cold side to the hot side.

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.

Abstract: A gas turbine combustor includes a main mixer for providing an air flow to mix with a fuel flow in a combustor. The main mixer includes an annular mixer body, a plurality of mixer vanes located circumferentially around the annular mixer body, and a plurality of wedges extending radially outward from each of the plurality of mixer vanes. At least one of the wedges includes serrations. The air flow through the main mixer enters the main mixer at a leading edge of the mixer vane, flows over the plurality of wedges, and exits the mixer vanes at a trailing edge of the main mixer. The wedges create vortices in the air flow to provide a uniform fuel-air flow.
