Abstract
1278590 Gas turbine engine combustion equipment JOSEPH LUCAS (INDUSTRIES) Ltd 11 Sept 1969 [20 Sept 1968] 44805/68 Heading F1L A combustion chamber for a gas turbine engine comprises a primary air inlet duct, secondary air inlet nozzles and dilution air inlet nozzles, each air inlet incorporating a fluidic air-flow control device arranged so that the proportions of the total air-flow through the respective inlets may be controlled without varying the total resistance of the combustion chamber to air-flow therethrough. The combustion equipment shown comprises an annular flame tube 10, 11 having a primary air inlet 12 with a swirl device 13, secondary air inlets 15 defined by flanged openings in the walls 10, 11, and dilution air inlets 18 also defined by flanged openings in the walls 10, 11. The outer wall of the primary air inlet is formed with openings 14, see Fig.2, through which jets of air under pressure may be blown so as effectively to reduce the flow area of the duct. Alternatively suction may be applied to the openings 14 so as effectively to increase the flow area. The upstream sides of the flange portions defining the secondary and dilution air inlets 15, 18 are likewise formed with openings through which air under pressure may be blown or suction applied so as to vary the effective flow areas. Ring members 16 are disposed adjacent the flanged openings 15, 18 so as to define chambers 17, 19 by which the fluidic control is applied. The fluidic control jets may discharge tangentially of the air inlets.
