Abstract: A combustor including a combustor lining, a tile including a recess at an end defining a receiving surface, and a tile holder. The tile holder includes an elongate retaining head having a combustor surface configured to face a combustion chamber of a combustor, and a securing portion extending from the head, the securing portion being configured to secure the head to a combustor lining. The retaining head extends laterally with respect to an elongate direction of the retaining head to define a retaining surface laterally adjacent to the securing portion; and the retaining surface cooperates with the receiving surface of the tile to retain the tile against the combustor lining. There is also disclosed a tile holder and a tile.

Abstract: A lean burn fuel injector has a head which has a coaxial arrangement of an inner pilot air-blast fuel injector and an outer main air-blast fuel injector. The pilot fuel injector comprises coaxially arranged inner and outer air swirler passages. The main fuel injector comprises coaxially arranged inner and outer air swirler passages. A first splitter is arranged between the passages. The first splitter has a conical divergent downstream portion. A second splitter is arranged radially within and spaced from the first splitter. The second splitter has a conical convergent portion and a conical divergent downstream portion. The downstream end of the second splitter is upstream of the downstream end of the first splitter. A connecting member connects the downstream end of the second splitter and the downstream portion of the first splitter upstream of the downstream end of the first splitter to form a sharp edge.

Abstract: A fuel spray nozzle including a primary atomizer to discharge a flow of swirled atomised fuel along and around a fuel spray nozzle axis. The primary atomiser includes outer air swirler disposed radially outwardly of a fuel pre-filmer channel. A secondary atomiser disposed around the primary atomiser includes secondary inner air swirler to swirl flow along an inner air channel. The secondary inner air swirler disposed radially inwardly of a secondary fuel pre-filmer channel of the secondary atomiser. A primary outer air channel defined between the primary outer swirler and the secondary inner swirler. The secondary inner air swirler include splitter wall to separate swirling flow in the secondary inner channel from the primary flow of atomised fuel. The secondary inner air swirler includes primary cap wall integral with and extending radially inwardly from the splitter wall to direct flow from the primary outer channel inwardly towards the fuel spray.
