Abstract

A fuel injector assembly includes a shroud defining a fuel manifold therein. The fuel manifold is fluidly coupled to a fuel line to receive a fuel therefrom. The fuel injector assembly further includes a center body and a plurality of vanes operatively coupling the center body to the shroud. Each vane of the plurality of vanes is circumferentially spaced from circumferentially adjacent vanes to define at least one passage therebetween for routing of air therethrough. Each of the plurality of vanes has at least one outlet hole in fluid communication with the fuel manifold and at least one passage of the at least one passage for expulsion of the fuel into the at least one passage for mixing with the air. A fuel injector outlet is defined by an inner wall of the fuel injector assembly and positioned to direct a fuel-air mixture out of the fuel injector assembly.
