The gallery (98) extends within the fuel nozzle (80) circumferentially around an axis (106) between a first end (116) of the gallery (98) and a second end (118) of the gallery (98). A size of the gallery (98) changes as the gallery (98) extends circumferentially around the axis (106) between the first end (116) of the gallery (98) and the second end (118) of the gallery (98). The one or more feed passages (100) extend within the fuel nozzle (80) to the gallery (98). The one or more feed passages (100) are configured to supply fuel to the gallery (98). The exit passages (102) extend within the fuel nozzle (80) from the gallery (98). The exit passages (102) are configured to receive the fuel from the gallery (98).
