DRIVE
September 10, 2025
A turbine engine (10) comprises a compressor section (12), a combustion section (14), and a turbine section (16) in serial flow arrangement, the combustion section (14) having a combustor (30) with a fuel mixer (90). The fuel mixer (90) comprises an outer wall (121, 221, 321, 421) defining a longitudinal axis (124) and having a mixture outlet (110, 210, 310, 410), a first compressed air flow passage (141, 241, 341, 441) and a second compressed air flow passage (142, 242, 342, 442) forming an intersection (143, 243, 343). The fuel mixer (90) further comprises a common flow passage (130, 230, 330) fluidly coupled to the intersection (143, 243, 343) and to the mixture outlet (110, 210, 310, 410) and a fuel supply passage (106) having a fuel outlet (116, 216, 316, 416) fluidly coupled to at least one of the first compressed air flow passage (141, 241, 341, 441) or the second compressed air flow passage (142, 242, 342, 442).
