ABSTRACT:
The high cost of the fuel injection system in a gas turbine engine can be reduced by utilizing a low cost jet or nozzle (70) to spray fuel into the inlet (24) of a compressor (18). The resulting air-fuel mixture flows as a semi-discrete sector to a combustor (58) to be swirled therein and combusted to drive a turbine wheel (50).
