In a turbomachine, there is provided a fuel metering unit having a cylindrical outer sleeve containing a distributor cylinder in which a metering piston can be moved linearly under the action of a control element. The cylindrical sleeve has an inlet orifice for admitting fuel under pressure and at least one outlet orifice for injecting fuel into a combustion chamber of the turbomachine, and the metering piston has an annular gap forming a distribution chamber for the fuel admitted via the inlet orifice and delivered via at least one outlet orifice. According to the invention, the distributor cylinder has a plurality of radial feed orifices for admitting fuel into the distribution chamber and at least a first metering orifice and at least a second metering orifice that are separated by a seal disposed at the periphery of the distributor cylinder.
A fuel metering unit in a turbomachine, the unit comprising an outer cylindrical sleeve having mounted therein a distributor cylinder in which a metering piston can move linearly under the action of a control element, said cylindrical sleeve having an inlet orifice for admitting fuel under pressure and at least one first outlet orifice and one second outlet orifice for injecting said fuel into a combustion chamber of said turbomachine, and said metering piston including an annular gap forming a distribution chamber for the fuel admitted via said inlet orifice and delivered via said at least one outlet orifice, wherein said distributor cylinder has a plurality of radial feed orifices for admitting fuel into said distribution chamber from said inlet orifice, and both at least one first metering orifice for expelling the fuel to said first outlet orifice, and at least one second metering orifice for expelling the fuel towards said second outlet orifice, said at least one first and at least one second metering orifices being separated by sealing means placed at the periphery of said distributor cylinder and being placed in a common transverse plane so as to ensure fuel flow continuity towards said combustion chamber during displacement of said metering piston.
