Zusammenfassung: | A premixing fuel nozzle assembly including a plurality of premixers for use in a combustor section of a turbine engine is provided. Each of the premixers of the pre-mixing fuel nozzle assembly including an annular outer ring, an annular inner hub, configured co-annular with the outer ring, a plurality of swirler vanes, a plurality of fuel injection orifices formed in each vane and an air-assist orifice formed about at least one of the plurality of fuel injection orifices. The plurality of swirler vanes extend radially outward from the annular inner hub toward the annular outer ring. The air-assist orifice generating a co-annular air-assist jacket about a fuel jet injected via the fuel injection orifice to provide additional momentum and thus mixing of the fuel jet with a downstream crossflow of fluid. A combustor section including the pre-mixing fuel nozzle assembly and method of assembling the pre-mixing fuel nozzle are additionally disclosed. |
