DRIVE October 23, 2024
Source
A cartridge tip (200) includes a main body (208) having an outer annular wall (210) and an inner core (212) each extending between a respective upstream end (214, 215) and a respective downstream end (216, 217). The inner core (212) is radially spaced apart from the outer annular wall (210) such that an annular air passage (217) is defined at least partially between the outer annular wall (210) and the inner core (212). A pilot fuel circuit (250) extends between a pilot inlet (254) defined in the upstream end (215) of the inner core (212) and a pilot outlet (256) defined in the downstream end (217) of the inner core (212). The pilot fuel circuit (250) extends at least partially along an axial centerline (206) of the cartridge tip (200). A main fuel circuit (252) extends between a main inlet (266) in the upstream end (215) of the inner core (212) and a plurality of main outlets (268) circumferentially spaced apart from one another and disposed upstream from the from the pilot outlet (256).
