A turbine engine has a compression section, a combustion section, a turbine section in serial flow arrangement and defining a working airflow path. The combustion section has a circumferential casing, a combustor, and a fuel nozzle. The circumferential casing defines an interior. The turbine engine includes a deswirler assembly. The deswirler assembly couples the working airflow path of the compression section to the interior. The turbine engine includes a fuel supply system.

Turbine engine having a combustion section

A gas turbine engine is provided having a turbomachine comprising a compressor section, a combustion section, and a turbine section arranged in serial flow order, the compressor section having a high pressure compressor defining a high pressure compressor exit area (A) in square inches and the turbine section having a drive turbine defining a drive turbine exit area (A) in square inches, the turbomachine further comprising a drive turbine shaft coupled to the drive turbine; wherein the gas turbine engine defines a maximum exhaust gas temperature (EGT) in degrees Celsius, a maximum drive turbine shaft torque (T) in Newton meters, and a corrected specific power (CSP) in Newtons squared times degrees Celsius over meters squared, wherein the corrected specific power is determined as follows: wherein CSP is greater than 0.0001194×EGT−0.103×EGT+22.14 and less than 0.0003294×EGT−0.306×EGT+77.91; and wherein EGT is greater than 525 degrees Celsius and less than 1250 degrees Celsius.
