Zusammenfassung:The present disclosure is directed to a fuel nozzle for a gas turbine engine, the fuel nozzle defining a radial direction, a longitudinal direction, a circumferential direction, an upstream end, and a downstream end. The fuel nozzle includes an aft body coupled to at least one fuel injector. The aft body defines a forward wall and an aft wall each extended in the radial direction, and a plurality of sidewalls extended in the longitudinal direction. The plurality of sidewalls couples the forward wall and the aft wall. The forward wall defines at least one channel inlet orifice. At least one sidewall defines at least one channel outlet orifice. At least one micro channel cooling circuit is defined between the one or more channel inlet orifices and the one or more channel outlet orifices.
