Abstract: An air blast fuel injector for a gas turbine engine includes an elongate feed arm having an inlet fitting for receiving fuel and for distributing the fuel to first and second fuel delivery conduits extending through the feed arm. A nozzle body is operatively connected to the feed arm. The nozzle body includes an on-axis inner air circuit and fuel circuitry radially outboard of the inner air circuit for delivering fuel to a fuel swirler outboard of the inner air circuit. The fuel circuitry includes a first fuel circuit configured and adapted to deliver fuel to the fuel swirler from the first fuel conduit of the feed arm and a second fuel circuit configured and adapted to deliver fuel to the fuel swirler from the second fuel conduit of the feed arm.

Abstract: A nozzle includes an inlet at an upstream end of the nozzle, a discharge outlet at a downstream end of the nozzle, and a fluid delivery passage extending between the inlet and the discharge outlet. Exterior and interior walls of the nozzle have downstream tip ends that are relatively longitudinally movable at one or more interfaces. An internal insulating gap is interposed between the interior and exterior walls to insulate fuel from ambient temperature conditions exterior to the nozzle. One or more flexible seal structures internal to the nozzle isolate a portion of the insulating gap from any ambient fluid entering into the gap through the one or more interfaces while providing relative movement between interior and exterior walls of the nozzle.
