Abstract
Multiple orifice disks are stacked and include one or more swirl disks. The effect of the stack of disks is to impart swirl to the fuel stream being ejected from the injector in a relatively short axial length. The geometry of the disks in the stack are such that the fuel from the top disk enters the bottom disk at the end of a pattern which operates to impart a swirl component to the fuel. The pattern in the bottom disk is typically a two layered pattern wherein the top layer is one half the thickness of the thin disk and the bottom layer is the second half of the thickness of the thin disk.
