  • Patent number: 11125435
    Abstract: A turbine engine combustion chamber including: an outer annular housing; a flame tube connected to the outer housing. The flame tube includes an inner annular wall and an outer annular wall and a second axial outlet portion of the flame tube. The flame tube also includes a chamber base located at the inlet of the flame tube; and a fuel injection system configured to inject fuel into the flame tube via the inlet of the flame tube. The injection system includes an injector axis, and an air manifold to move air towards twists in the injection system. The twists are arranged around an implantation axis. The air manifold includes a circular portion around the injector axis. The circular portion, forms an air inlet of the manifold. The opening places the entering air flow in rotation about the implantation axis.

  • Patent number: 11002196
    Abstract: The invention relates to a combustion chamber for a turbomachine. The combustion chamber comprises at least one spark plug, at least one fuel injector of a first type of injector that is located facing the spark plug, and at least one fuel injector of a second type. Each fuel injector comprises a mobile sealing member that is configured to open when the fuel pressure exceeds an opening threshold. The opening threshold of the mobile sealing member of the injector of the first type is strictly less than the opening threshold of the mobile sealing member of the injector of the second type.

  • Patent number: 10883718
    Abstract: An air intake swirler for a turbomachine injection system includes an upstream wall and a downstream wall, both of revolution about an axis of the air intake swirler, and fins distributed about the axis and connecting the upstream wall to the downstream wall so as to delimit, between the upstream wall and the downstream wall, air inlet channels each having an inlet and an outlet. The swirler includes two aerodynamic deflectors that respectively extend the downstream walls radially outward and that have a concavity oriented upstream. The aerodynamic deflectors extend radially facing the respective inlets of the air inlet channels and thus make it possible to limit the loss of pressure of the air supplied to the air inlet channels.

  • Patent number: 10883720
    Abstract: A combustion chamber of a turbomachine includes an annular outer casing and a flame tube connected to the outer casing. The flame tube includes an annular inner wall and an annular outer wall defining a first, radial portion at the inlet of the flame tube and a second, axial portion at the outlet of the flame tube. The first portion extends towards the second portion forming an elbow between the inlet and the outlet of the flame tube.

  • Publication number: 20180209649
    Abstract: The invention relates to a turbine engine combustion chamber including: an outer annular housing; a flame tube (20) connected to the outer housing, said flame tube (20) including an inner annular wall (20b) and an outer annular wall (20a) that define a first radial inlet portion of the flame tube and a second axial outlet portion of the flame tube, the flame tube also including a chamber base (30) located at the inlet of the flame tube (20); and a fuel injection system (40?) configured to inject fuel into the flame tube via the inlet of the flame tube. The injection system includes an injector axis (AA?), parallel to the first portion, and an air manifold (40?d) configured to move air towards twists in the injection system (40?). The twists are arranged around an implantation axis parallel to the injector axis. The air manifold includes a circular portion around the injector axis. The circular portion, from which extends an opening, forms an air inlet of the manifold.
