METHOD OF ASSEMBLING A FUEL NOZZLE

摘要

A method of assembling a fuel nozzle (100) comprises the steps of forming a pilot assembly (607); coupling the pilot assembly (607) to a unitary distributor (300) such that the pilot assembly (607) is in flow communication with a pilot flow passage in the unitary distributor; coupling a unitary swirler (200) having an adaptor (250) to the unitary distributor (300); coupling the adaptor (250) to a stem housing (83); coupling the unitary distributor (300) to the stem housing (83); and coupling a centerbody (450) to the stem housing (83).
