Abstract:
A swirler is provided for a turbine engine. The swirler includes a swirler housing and a swirler nozzle that is attached to the housing. The housing defines a first inlet and a second inlet. The housing and the nozzle form an inner passage and an outer passage. The inner passage is radially within the nozzle and coupled with the first inlet. The outer passage is radially between the housing and the nozzle and coupled with the second inlet.
Abstract:
A turbine engine includes a compressor section, a combustor in fluid communication with the compressor section, and a turbine section in fluid communication with the combustor section. The combustor includes a combustor region defined by at least one bulkhead panel and at least one heat shielding panel inside the combustor region. The at least one heat shielding panel is connected to the bulkhead panel via at least one cooled fastener.
