Gas-turbine combustion chamber having non-symmetrical fuel nozzles

Abstract

The present invention relates to an annular gas-turbine combustion chamber having a radially outer and a radially inner combustion chamber wall relative to a machine axis, a combustion chamber head and a combustion chamber outlet nozzle, where the combustion chamber head includes several fuel nozzles spread over its circumference for supplying air and fuel, the latter exiting in an outlet surface of the fuel nozzles, where the respective fuel nozzle has a burner axis which is vertical to the outlet surface and where the intersections of the burner axes with the outlet surfaces define a circular burner centerline around the engine axis, characterized in that a cross-sectional area of the fuel nozzle radially outside the burner centerline is identical to a cross-sectional area radially inside the burner centerline.
