Abstract:

A rich-quench-lean combustor assembly for a gas turbine engine includes a liner extending between a forward end and an aft end. The liner includes a plurality of quench air jets positioned between the forward end and the aft end. The combustor assembly additionally includes a dome attached to or formed integrally with the liner, the dome and the liner together defining at least in part a combustion chamber. A fuel nozzle is attached to the dome, the fuel nozzle configured as a premix fuel nozzle for providing a substantially homogenous mixture of fuel and air to the combustion chamber, the mixture of fuel and air having an equivalence ratio of at least 1.5.
