Zusammenfassung: | A combustor for a turbine engine includes a main combustion chamber, an annular dome, and a secondary combustion chamber positioned downstream of the annular dome. A plurality of first mixing assemblies are disposed through the annular dome and include a pilot mixer. The pilot mixer injects a pilot mixer fuel-air mixture axially into the main combustion chamber and generates a first recirculation zone within the main combustion chamber. A plurality of second mixing assemblies are disposed at the secondary combustion chamber axially aft of the first mixing assemblies and include a main mixer. The main mixer injects a main mixer fuel-air mixture into the secondary combustion chamber to produce combustion gases and to generate a second recirculation zone within the secondary combustion chamber axially aft of the first recirculation zone. The secondary combustion chamber injects the combustion gases into the main combustion chamber. |
