A fuel gas nozzle used in a microturbine includes a first chamber, a second chamber connected to the first chamber, a pilot fuel gas pipe, a main fuel gas pipe and an intake pipe. An intake zone and a mixing zone are respectively formed in the first chamber and the second chamber and are communicated with each other. The pilot fuel gas pipe is for introducing a first fuel gas into a downstream of the second chamber. The main fuel gas pipe is for introducing a second fuel gas into the mixing zone via the intake zone. The intake pipe is for introducing an air into the mixing zone. A centerline of the intake pipe is not intersected with a centerline of the second chamber, so as to induce a vortex flow field of the air flowing into the mixing zone for mixing the air and the second fuel gas.

A micro turbine generator includes a compressor, a guide channel, an expansion chamber, and a recuperator. The expansion chamber includes an air inlet, an air outlet, and a guide vane structure. The air inlet is disposed at one end of the expansion chamber, connected with the compressor through the guide channel, and receives an air compressed by the compressor. The air outlet is disposed at the other end of the expansion chamber, connected with the recuperator, and discharges the air, allowing the air to enter the recuperator. The guide vane structure extends inward from an inner wall of the expansion chamber to allow the air to pass the guide vane structure before being discharged from the air outlet to enter the recuperator.
