A combustor structure of an embodiment is disposed to penetrate, from a direction perpendicular to an axial direction of a turbine rotor in a supercritical CO.sub.2 gas turbine which uses supercritical CO.sub.2 for a working fluid, a casing of the supercritical CO.sub.2 gas turbine. The combustor structure includes a plurality of combustors. Each of the combustors includes: a combustor liner in a cylindrical shape, which combusts fuel and an oxidant; a fuel supply part which is provided at an upstream end of the combustor liner and supplies the fuel into the combustor liner; and an oxidant supply part which is provided at the upstream end of the combustor liner and supplies the oxidant into the combustor liner.

A fuel injection system for use in a combustor of a turbine engine includes a mixer assembly including a mixer housing and a fuel nozzle assembly positioned radially inward of the mixer housing. The fuel nozzle assembly includes a substantially annular fuel injection housing and a substantially annular main fuel injector coupled to the fuel injection housing. The main fuel injector includes a body, a fuel delivery passage defined in the body, a swirl chamber defined in the body downstream of the fuel delivery passage, and a plurality of circumferentially-spaced fuel metering slots defined in the body and coupled in flow communication with and between the fuel delivery passage and the swirl chamber.

A fuel injector for a gas turbine engine includes a feed arm defining a conduit extending between an inlet end and an outlet end and a plunger. The plunger is disposed within the conduit and is movable between a plunger first position and a plunger second position. A flow area defined between the plunger and the feed arm is smaller in the plunger first position than in the plunger second position to bias fuel flow through the fuel injector. Fuel systems, gas turbine engines, and methods of controlling fuel flow in gas turbine engine fuel systems are also described.

A dynamic pressure exchanger configured for a combustion process includes an inlet plate and a rotor assembly mounted for rotation relative to the inlet plate about a central axis of the dynamic pressure exchanger. The inlet plate is formed to include an inlet port configured to direct air into the rotor assembly. The rotor assembly includes an inner rotor and an outer rotor arranged around the inner rotor.

A fuel nozzle with turning guide is included in a gas turbine. The turning guide is disposed in an air inlet of the fuel nozzle to distribute a flow of compressed air and includes at least one of a turning separator, an inner separator, and an outer separator. The fuel nozzle includes a central body having an outer wall; a shroud concentrically disposed with respect to the central body and configured to surround the central body while maintaining a space for an air passage between an inner wall of the shroud and the outer wall of the central body; a rim formed on one end of the shroud and forming an air inlet communicating with the air passage; and a turning guide including a turning separator disposed in the air inlet, to make the air flow uniform, thereby suppressing the creation of an air pocket.
