Abstract: A gas turbine system is provided. The gas turbine system includes a combustor assembly. At least one liquid fuel cartridge in the combustor assembly includes at least one flexible tube section coupled within a housing. An elongated inner tube section is coupled in fluid communication with the at least one flexible tube section and oriented within an elongated outer tube extending from the housing. At least one support member oriented within and coupled to an inner surface of the elongated outer tube substantially precludes transverse movement of the elongated inner tube section within the elongated outer tube.
