The wall having an inner surface defining an interior of a channel through which fluid flows; and a plurality of projections extending from the inner surface of the wall. The plurality of projections extend around the axis, in a plane perpendicular to the axis; and wherein the projections have a height perpendicular to the axis into the channel, and the height is arranged such that the projections modify the flow of fluid at a boundary layer of the fluid adjacent the wall. The conduit is arranged to carry a first fluid; the conduit includes an opening for introducing a second fluid into the channel such that the first and second fluid are mixed downstream of the opening and the plurality of projections are provided upstream of the opening, in a direction of fluid flow.

摘要： A method of delivering fuel from a fuel nozzle of a gas turbine engine includes carrying by a fuel passageway of the fuel nozzle a film of pressurised fuel, the fuel passageway being disposed radially outwardly from an air passageway carrying a flow of pressurised air, and directing the film of pressurised fuel onto an inside surface of an exit lip of an outer wall of the fuel passageway and thinning the film of pressurised fuel as it travels therealong. The exit lip generally increases in diameter as it extends downstream.

摘要： A gas-only cartridge for a fuel nozzle includes a flange that defines a plurality of apertures for receiving a gaseous fuel, an outer tube that is coupled to the flange and an inner tube that extends axially within the outer tube. The inner tube and the outer tube define a fuel passage therebetween and the fuel passage is in fluid communication with the plurality of apertures of the flange. A fuel distribution tip is disposed at a downstream end of the gas-only cartridge and defines a plurality of fuel ports circumferentially spaced along and annularly arranged about an outer surface of the fuel distribution tip. The fuel ports are in fluid communication with the fuel passage.

摘要： A gas turbine engine includes a compressor, a turbine, and a combustor. The combustor includes a fuel injector and a vaporizer within the combustor positioned to receive liquid fuel from the fuel injector to vaporize the liquid fuel therein. The gas turbine engine includes an enclosed passage external to the combustor having a wall, a diffuser positioned to direct the air into the passage, causing the air to cool by transferring heat through the wall from the air within the passage to the vaporized fuel within the vaporizer, and a cooled cooling air passageway positioned to receive the air from the passage and direct the air after being cooled to at least one of the turbine and the compressor.

摘要： A fuel injection device for a gas turbine combustor includes a pilot fuel injector disposed on an axis of the fuel injection device; an annular main fuel injector encircling the pilot fuel injector; and a plurality of main fuel injection holes formed in the main fuel injector and spaced circumferentially from each other for injecting fuel axially rearward. The main fuel injector includes an annular fuel passage forming portion, an inner ring portion on an inner peripheral side of the fuel passage fowling portion, and an outer ring portion on an outer peripheral side of the fuel passage forming portion. One of a space between the fuel passage forming portion and the inner ring portion and a space between the fuel passage forming portion and the outer ring portion forms a pilot fuel supply passage, and the other one forms a main fuel supply passage.
