摘要:
An air-shielded fuel injection assembly for use in a combustion chamber of a turbine assembly. The air-shielded fuel injection assembly generally includes a fuel manifold including a plurality of fuel injection ports and an air manifold including a plurality of air injection ports. Each of the plurality of fuel injection ports is configured to introduce a fuel column into an annular cavity of a mixer assembly. Each of the plurality of air injection ports is configured to introduce an air curtain about an associated fuel injection column to minimize recirculation upstream of the fuel injection column and increase penetration of the fuel injection column into the cavity. Also disclosed are a mixer assembly and a turbine assembly including the air-shielded fuel injection assembly.

摘要:
A fuel injector to reduce NOx emissions in a combustor system. The fuel injector including a housing, at least one oxidizer flow path, extending axially through the fuel injector housing and defining therein one or more oxidizer flow paths for an oxidizer stream and a fuel manifold, extending axially through the fuel injector housing and defining therein one or more fuel flow path. The fuel manifold includes a forward portion and an aft portion including an aft face. A plurality of fuel injector outlets are defined in the aft portion, wherein the plurality of fuel injector outlets are configured to inject a fuel flow along a mid-plane of the fuel injector and away from a downstream wall. The fuel flow exiting the fuel manifold undergoes circumferential and radial mixing upon interaction with the oxidizer stream. Additionally disclosed is a combustor system including the fuel injector.

A corrugated cyclone mixer for use in a fuel injection assembly of a turbine engine. The corrugated cyclone mixer generally includes an annular housing including a flange portion and a lip portion configured downstream of the flange portion. The mixer further including a swirler disposed therein the annular housing for inducing a cyclonic motion in the corrugated cyclone mixer. The swirler is configured upstream of the flange portion and including a plurality of swirler vanes to produce a swirling air flow. The lip portion forming an outlet downstream of the swirler and including a plurality of corrugations at an aft end. The plurality of corrugations are configured to mix the swirling air flow and an injected fuel stream flowing therethrough the corrugated cyclone mixer. Additionally disclosed is a fuel injection assembly and a turbine assembly including the corrugated cyclone mixer.
