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 can include both a primary and secondary fuel passage, and an additional air passage to provide for greater flame control, fuel provision, or local fuel and air mixing prior to combustion.

Abstract: A turbine engine that includes an engine core having at least a compressor section and a combustion section. The combustion section includes a combustor. The combustor section or combustor includes a fuel-air mixing assembly fluidly coupled to the compressor section. The fuel-air mixing assembly includes an outer wall, a center body at least partially circumscribed by the outer wall, and an annular flow passage between the outer wall and center body. At least one fuel orifice includes a fuel outlet fluidly coupled to the annular flow passage.

Abstract: A turbine engine can utilize a combustor to combust fuel to drive the turbine, which drives 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. Increasing efficiency and carbon-containing emission needs benefit from the use of alternative fuels, which combust at higher temperatures than traditional fuels, requiring improved fuel introduction without the occurrence of flame holding or flashback.

CPC classification number: F23R3/06
Abstract: A gas turbine engine includes a compressor section, a combustor section, and a turbine section in fore-to-aft serial flow arrangement and defines an engine centerline. The combustor section includes a combustor liner at least partially defining a combustor chamber and a dome wall, coupled to the combustor liner, and defining a forward end of the combustion chamber. A first fuel nozzle is located on the dome wall and fluidly coupled to the combustion chamber. A first set of compressed air openings emit compressed air into the combustion chamber along a first flow path and a second set of compressed air openings emit compressed air into the combustion chamber along a second flow path. The first and second flow paths intersect at an intersection point to form a sheet of air.
