ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to means for minimizing the smoke emitted from the exhaust of a gas turbine engine by judiciously adding air to the primary burning zone of a combustor at discrete locations. This invention contemplates retrofitting existing burners by substituting the improvement for existing can burner components to obviate the necessity of replacing the entire combustor.
