    Abstract: A swirler assembly for use in a combustor includes a first air swirler having a first swirler vane assembly, a second air swirler adjacent the first air swirler and having a second swirler vane assembly, and a ferrule coupled to the first air swirler and the second air swirler. The ferrule includes a ferrule swirler having a plurality of vanes. The first swirler vane assembly is configured to generate a first radial rotating airflow, and the second swirler vane assembly is configured to generate a second radial rotating airflow. The plurality of vanes of the ferrule swirler are configured to generate a ferrule axial airflow to interact with and mix to with the first radial rotating airflow and the second radial rotating airflow.

    Abstract: An integrated fuel cell and combustor assembly, and a related method. The assembly includes a combustor having a combustor geometry and a combustor exit temperature. The assembly further includes multiple fuel cells fluidly coupled to the combustor, the multiple fuel cells being configured to generate a fuel cell power output using fuel and air directed into the multiple fuel cells and to direct a fuel and air exhaust from the multiple fuel cells into the combustor. The multiple fuel cells include multiple fuel cell control groups arranged in a predetermined electrical configuration about the combustor geometry. Each of the multiple fuel cell control groups has an adjustable electrical current bias.
