Abstract:
A gas turbine engine device is disclosed for mixing fuel and air prior to a combustion. The device includes a pilot mixer and a main mixer each having a fuel opening for the delivery of fuel to one or more passages. In one form the main mixer includes an inner passage and an outer passage and in which a fuel opening delivers fuel to the inner passage. The main mixer can include swirlers in the inner and/or outer passages. The pilot mixer can also include a swirler. In one embodiment the main mixer includes a converging flow path and/or a diverging flow path. The pilot mixer can also include a converging and/or diverging flow path and in one form is sheltered from an exit of the device. The main mixer fuel opening can be disposed between an upstream end and a downstream end of the mixer.
