Patent abstract
A nozzle includes a nozzle body defining a longitudinal axis. The nozzle body includes an air passage having a radial swirler and a converging conical cross-section. A fuel circuit is radially outboard from the air passage with respect to the longitudinal axis. The fuel circuit extends from a fuel circuit inlet to a fuel circuit annular outlet. The fuel circuit includes a plurality of helical passages to mitigate gravitational effects at low fuel flow rates. Each helical passage of the fuel circuit opens tangentially with respect to the fuel circuit annular outlet into an outlet of the air passage.
