Combustor containing fuel nozzle

Abstract

There is provided a combustor comprising a fuel nozzle which is comprised of a rodlike body which has a fuel passage and which is located in an air passage; a plurality of hollow members which are connected to the fuel passage and which extend in radial directions from the rodlike body into the air passage; at least one injection port formed in each hollow member to inject a fuel from the fuel passage into the air passage; and a projection which extends from a farmost inner wall of each hollow member that is most distant from an axis of the rodlike body to the injection port that is most distant from the axis. A hole for leaking fuel that is connected to an air passage may be formed in a farmost inner wall of the hollow member that is more distant from an axis of a rodlike body than the injection port that is most distant from the axis, or may be formed to be adjacent to all the injection ports on an upstream or downstream side in the direction of the airflow. Thus, a vortex does not occur in the hollow column.
