Zusammenfassung:A fuel mixture distribution system for a turbine engine assembly includes a combustor that includes a wall defining a combustion chamber, a fuel mixture distributor that includes a mixing chamber that extends along an axis between a closed end and an exit opening to the combustion chamber, the mixing chamber shape being defined to achieve the desired mixing and prevent flashback at all operating conditions, and a plurality of fuel passages and a plurality of air passages that are disposed about a periphery of the mixing chamber within a common plane transverse to the axis. Each of the plurality of fuel passages and each of the plurality of air passages are angled to induce mixing of fuel and air within the mixing chamber prior to flowing through the exit opening into the combustion chamber.
