Abstract

Systems are provided for mounting sector nozzles within gas turbine combustors. In one embodiment, a sector nozzle includes a nozzle portion configured to mix fuel and air to produce a fuel-air mixture and a shell coupled to the nozzle portion. The sector nozzle also includes a first longitudinal strut and a second longitudinal strut coupled to a first surface of the shell on opposite sides of a window within the first surface. A third longitudinal strut is coupled to a second surface of the shell, and the second surface is disposed opposite of the first surface.
