Abstract

See full text

There is provided a method for improving the combustion efficiency of a combustor of a gas turbine engine powering an aircraft. The method comprises selectively using two distinct fuel injection units or a combination thereof for spraying fuel in a combustion chamber of the combustor of the gas turbine engine. A first one of the two distinct fuel injection units is selected and optimized for high power demands, whereas a second one of the two distinct fuel injection units is selected and optimized for low power level demands. In operation, the fuel flow ratio between the two distinct injection units is controlled as a function of the power level demand.
