Tóm tắt

A cooling system for a fuel system in a turbine engine that is usable to cool a fuel nozzle is disclosed. The cooling system may include one or more cooling system housings positioned around the fuel nozzle, such that the cooling system housing forms a cooling chamber defined at least partially by an inner surface of the cooling system housing and an outer surface of the fuel nozzle. The fuel nozzle may extend into a combustor chamber formed at least in part by a combustor housing. The fuel nozzle may include one or more fuel exhaust orifices with an opening in an outer surface of the fuel nozzle and configured to exhaust fluids unrestricted by the housing forming the cooling system cooling chamber. The cooling system may provide cooling fluids to cool the fuel nozzle within the cooling system cooling chamber regardless of whether the fuel nozzle is in use.
