Abstract
An annular combustion chamber for a turbine engine is provided. The chamber includes an annular row of fuel injectors including heads engaged in fuel injection systems mounted in openings in the chamber end wall. Each injector head includes at least one fuel-passing helical channel for causing fuel to rotate about the longitudinal axis of the head. Each injection system includes at least one swirler including air-passing channels of sections with axes that are inclined relative to the plurality axis of the swirler at an angle that is substantially equal to a helix angle of the helical channel, to within ±10°, and are oriented in a same direction as the channel about the longitudinal axis of the swirler.
