Abstract:
A mixer assembly for a gas turbine engine is provided, including a main mixer with fuel injection holes located between at least one radial swirler and at least one axial swirler, wherein the fuel injected into the main mixer is atomized and dispersed by the air flowing through the radial swirler and the axial swirler.
Abstract:
A chemiluminescence imaging system that may be used for monitoring a combustor flame of a gas turbine engine includes a sensor array having a plurality of pixels operable to capture an image. A multispectral mask array and an attenuation filer array of the system may be generally placed in front of the sensor array and each have a plurality of cells that are generally align, respectively, to the plurality of pixels. Each cell is generally one of a plurality of band-pass filter types distributed randomly across the multispectral mask array and an image reconstruction algorithm is used to produce at least one image for evaluating properties of the flame.

Abstract:
A combustor assembly for a gas turbine engine according to an example of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a combustion chamber, and a fuel injector assembly in communication with the combustion chamber that has a swirler body situated about a nozzle to define an injector passage that converges to a throat. The throat is defined at a distance from the combustion chamber. The nozzle includes a primary fuel injector along a first fuel injector axis and at least one secondary plain jet fuel injector axially forward of the primary fuel injector.
