Abstract
A rotary cup fuel injector for use in a gas turbine engine, the rotary cup injector being rotatably secured to the rotor shaft and positioned radially inward of the combustor, the rotary cup injector having a front face with a parabolic shape and a rear face with a slanted and flat shape. The front and rear faces of the injector form a thin film of fuel on the surfaces and—because of the high rotational speed—produce fine droplet's of fuel to be injected into a combustion chamber. The two faces inject fuel into two combustion zones of the combustor.
