A fuel injector and igniter assembly

摘要

An assembly (10) for the catalytic ignition of atomized fuel for combustion within the combustion chamber of a turbine engine places a catalytic fuel igniter rod (10) in a central position of a nozzle (10) injecting a fuel-air mixture to receive the atomized fuel upon entry into the combustion chamber. The igniter rod (1) is heated to operating temperature so that at least a portion of the atomized fuel enters the combustion chamber in an ignited state.
