Abstract:
The present disclosure is directed to a nozzle assembly including a header manifold and a ring manifold, which defines a liquid fuel plenum, spaced from the header manifold. An outer sleeve connects to the ring manifold, and a nozzle body connects to the outer sleeve. The ring manifold, the outer sleeve, and the nozzle body define a fluid chamber. An inner fuel tube extends from the header manifold to the nozzle body. A portion of the inner fuel tube extends helically about an axial centerline of the nozzle assembly between the ring manifold and the nozzle body. A first fuel tube extends helically around a portion of the inner fuel tube. The first fuel tube fluidly couples the liquid fuel plenum to the header manifold. A second fuel tube extends helically around a portion of the inner fuel tube and fluidly couples the liquid fuel plenum to the header manifold.
