Abstract:
A method of igniting liquid fuel in a turbomachine combustor is provided. The method includes a step of initiating a flow of gaseous fuel from a gaseous fuel supply to a gaseous fuel nozzle. The method further includes a step of initiating a flow of liquid fuel from a liquid fuel supply to a primary liquid fuel cartridge. After initiating both the flow of gaseous fuel and the flow of liquid fuel, the method includes a step of igniting the flow of gaseous fuel and the flow of liquid fuel with an igniter. The method further includes a step of terminating the flow of gaseous fuel from the gaseous fuel supply to the gaseous fuel nozzle.
