Abstract
A gas turbine combustion chamber is provided including a pilot fuel nozzle arranged in the central section of a cylinder that opens at one end towards a combustion chamber. The pilot fuel nozzle includes a fuel nozzle and a cylindrical outer casing around the outer circumference of the fuel nozzle. A pilot swirl element is arranged between fuel nozzle and outer casing, including a plurality of main burners which are arranged around the pilot fuel nozzle, and including a pilot cone having an inner side and an outer side. The pilot cone is arranged on the pilot fuel nozzle and an opening, such that a pilot flame is formed in the pilot cone by mixing air and pilot fuel in order to ignite a fuel injected by the main burners, wherein the pilot cone has turbulence generators on the inner side and/or outer side thereof.
