The multipoint fuel which is liable to stagnate inside the circuit thereof is cooled uniformly, due to the formation of continuous baffles which each communicate with at least one separate circulation channel and of which the peripheral baffles open out into a fuel admission chamber arranged in a zone diametrically opposing the circulation channels and which communicates with the injection nozzle for pilot fuel in order to achieve uniform supply and cooling of the injector.

Abstract: In a fuel injection device at a base of a combustion chamber, a mixing air inlet screw is manufactured with its peripheral holes extending only over a sector of a circle directed towards the air's propagation cone, wherein the remainder of the periphery of the screw is closed. It is then possible to reduce load loss of the injection system while obtaining an improved quality of the mix supplied to the chamber. Such a device can be used in gas turbines fitted with centrifugal compressors and in which the air flow towards the combustion chamber must therefore be made convergent.
