    Abstract: A fuel nozzle assembly includes a forward plate and an aft plate which is axially spaced from the forward plate. The aft plate includes a first side surface and a second side surface. A cooling air plenum is defined within the bundled tube fuel nozzle assembly and is at least partially defined by the aft plate. A plurality of tubes extends through the forward plate, the cooling air plenum and the aft plate. A micro-cooling channel is disposed along the second side surface of the aft plate and is in fluid communication with the cooling air plenum and is in fluid communication with an exhaust aperture. A cover plate is connected to the aft plate and covers the micro-cooling channel.

    Abstract: A combustor assembly includes a combustion liner defining a first radial opening, an outer sleeve that at least partially surrounds the combustion liner. The outer sleeve defines a second radial opening. A mounting body having a jacket portion and a flange portion surrounds the first radial opening and extends radially outwardly from an outer surface of the combustion liner towards the outer sleeve. The flange portion is at least partially disposed within the second radial opening. An auxiliary component extends radially within the jacket portion and includes a flange portion. The flange portion of the auxiliary component is connected to the flange portion of the mounting body via a first fastener, and the flange portion of the auxiliary component is connected to the outer sleeve via a second fastener.

    Abstract: A fuel injector for a gas turbine combustor includes a fuel conduit fitting and a nozzle having an inlet portion defining a mixing chamber therein. The inlet portion includes a plurality of circumferentially-spaced vanes that define a plurality of inlet flow paths within the mixing chamber. Each vane has at least one port defined therein that is in flow communication with the fuel conduit fitting such that fuel from the fuel conduit fitting is dischargeable into at least one of the inlet flow paths via the at least one port. The resulting fuel/air mixture is delivered into a secondary combustion zone of the gas turbine combustor. A gas turbine including the fuel injector and a method of fabricating the fuel nozzle are also provided.

    Abstract: An aft frame for a duct of a combustor includes a rail or radial projection that extends circumferentially around the aft frame and that defines an outer surface of the aft frame. A preformed cover plate having an inner surface is attached to the outer surface of the aft frame. A plurality of micro-cooling channels is formed within at least one of the inner surface of the preformed cover plate and the outer surface of the aft frame. The preformed cover plate extends across the plurality of micro-cooling channels.

    Abstract: A system includes a gas turbine engine having a first combustor and a second combustor. Each combustor has at least one fuel nozzle that receives a mixture of liquid fuel and water, via main and pilot fuel supplies, and that injects the mixture and an oxidant into a combustion chamber. A biasing system is disposed in a fuel path upstream of the fuel nozzles in the second combustor to vary the ratios of water/main fuel or water/pilot fuel or the flow rates of such mixtures. The biasing system is configured to help reduce a combustion dynamics amplitude or modal coupling between the first combustor and the second combustor.

    Abstract: A system for supplying a working fluid to a combustor includes a fuel nozzle, a combustion chamber disposed downstream from the fuel nozzle, an inner flow sleeve that circumferentially surrounds the combustion chamber and a plurality of injectors circumferentially arranged around the inner flow sleeve. The plurality of injectors provide for fluid communication through the inner flow sleeve and into the combustion chamber downstream from the fuel nozzle. The system further includes an outer air shield that defines an injection air plenum that surrounds the plurality of injectors. An inlet passage extends through the outer air shield to define a flow path into the injection air plenum. An outer sleeve is slidingly engaged with the outer air shield. The outer sleeve has a first position that restricts flow through the inlet passage and a second position that increases flow through the inlet passage.
