Abstract
The present disclosure is directed to a fuel injector including a centerbody defining an air inlet opening defined substantially radially through the centerbody; an outer sleeve surrounding the centerbody, and an end wall coupled to the centerbody and the outer sleeve. The outer sleeve defines a radially oriented first air inlet port defined radially outward of the air inlet opening at the centerbody. A mixing passage is defined between the outer sleeve and the centerbody. A first fuel injection port is defined substantially axially through the end wall to the mixing passage. The first fuel injection port defines a first fuel injection opening at the mixing passage between the first air inlet port at the outer sleeve and the air inlet opening at the centerbody.
