A fuel nozzle for a turbine engine is configured to deliver a large volume of a fuel which has a relatively low amount of energy per unit volume. The fuel nozzle includes a fuel swirler plate (120) having fuel delivery apertures (124/126/127/129) which are angled with respect to the flat surfaces of the swirler plate. A nozzle cap (130) covers the end of the fuel nozzle to create a swirl chamber (135) at the outlet end. The nozzle cap may include a plurality of air inlet apertures (136) to allow the air to enter the swirl chamber. |
