GAS TURBINE ENGINE CARBURETOR

摘要

A gas turbine engine carburetor including an annular swirler and a new and improved fuel injector cooperating therewith is disclosed which is effective for providing low BTU gaseous fuel to a combustor. The swirler includes a plurality of circumferentially spaced swirler vanes effective for channeling air along an annular inner surface of the swirler. The fuel injector includes a hollow injector tip having an aft portion including a plurality of circumferentially spaced outlet apertures disposed in an outer surface thereof. The outer surface is aligned obliquely to a longitudinal centerline axis of the injector tip and the swirler.
