ABSTRACT:
A gas turbine engine combustor has a plurality of circumferentially fuel injectors. Two lower nozzles are pilot nozzles and are of the fuel pressure atomized type, and the majority of nozzles are of the air atomized type. A pressurizing valve maintains high fuel pressure to the pilot nozzles at all operating conditions. The fuel/air ratio for the pilot nozzles is optimized facilitating start up and increased stability during transient conditions.
