A first plurality of orifices is disposed along the first fluid conduit and is configured to fluidly couple the first fuel passage to the oxidant passage. A second plurality of orifices is disposed on the third fluid conduit and is configured to fluidly couple the second fuel passage to the oxidant passage. A first diameter of the first plurality of orifices is less than a second diameter of the second plurality of orifices.
