  • Patent number: 9677766
    Abstract: A fuel nozzle for use in a turbine engine is provided. The fuel nozzle includes a fuel injector configured to discharge a flow of fuel therefrom and a premixer tube coupled in flow communication with the fuel injector. The premixer tube is configured to receive the fuel flow and a flow of air at an upstream end of the premixer tube, wherein the fuel and air are progressively mixed as the fuel and air are channeled through the length of the premixer tube.

  • Publication number: 20130196270
    Abstract: A jet micro-induced flow reversals combustor is used to reduce NOx emissions. The combustor has a nozzle disposed at the head end of the combustion chamber. The nozzle includes a plurality of jets for injecting a fuel and oxidant mixture stream into the combustion chamber. A combustion liner is disposed within the casing on one side of the nozzle and a plenum chamber is disposed on another side of the nozzle and configured to provide an input of a fuel and oxidant. The nozzle and the combustion liner are sized and shaped to input the fuel and oxidant mixture stream into the combustion liner at a high velocity ratio wherein a jet velocity is greater than a combustion mean velocity within the combustion liner, to increase turbulence within the combustion liner and reduce combustion emissions.
