Abstract
A premix pilot nozzle includes a tip portion having a downstream surface that extends between a downstream end of an inner wall of the tip portion and a downstream end of an outer wall of the tip portion. The downstream end of the inner wall terminates axially upstream from the downstream end of the outer wall. At least a portion of the downstream surface is curvilinear. The tip portion further comprises a plurality of axially extending premix tubes annularly arranged about the tip portion. Each premix tube defines a premix flow passage through the tip portion. Each premix tube also includes an outlet that is axially offset from the downstream surface.
