Abstract: A rotary engine having an insert in a peripheral wall of the stator body, the insert being made of a material having a greater heat resistance than that of the peripheral wall, having a subchamber defined therein and having an inner surface, the subchamber communicating with the cavity through at least one opening defined in the inner surface and having a shape forming a reduced cross-section adjacent the opening, a pilot fuel injector having a tip received in the subchamber, an ignition element having a tip received in the subchamber, and a main fuel injector extending through the stator body and having a tip communicating with the cavity at a location spaced apart from the insert. The subchamber has a volume corresponding to from 5% to 25% of a sum of the minimum volume and the volume of the subchamber. A method of injecting heavy fuel into a Wankel engine is also discussed.

Abstract: A fuel nozzle for a combustor of a gas turbine engine includes a body defining an axial direction and a radial direction, an air passageway defined axially in the body, and a fuel passageway defined axially in the body radially outwardly from the air passageway. The fuel passageway has an outer wall including an exit lip at a downstream portion of the outer wall. The exit lip has a surface treatment including a swirl-inducing relief. A gas turbine engine and a method of inducing swirl in at least one of pressurised fuel and air exiting a fuel nozzle of a gas turbine engine are also presented.

Abstract: 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.

Abstract: A method of inducing swirl in pressurized air flowing through an air passageway of a fuel nozzle of a gas turbine engine includes inducing swirl in the pressurized air at an exit of the air passageway, by directing the pressurised air through helicoidal grooves formed at a downstream end of the air passageway. The swirling pressurized air exiting the air passageway is then directed into a mixing zone at a downstream end of the fuel nozzle.
