A nozzle for channeling a fluid into a combustor assembly. The nozzle includes a body including a centerline, a first passageway extending through the body along the centerline, and a nozzle tip coupled to a downstream end of the first passageway. The nozzle tip has a radius extending from a center of the nozzle tip to an outer surface of the nozzle tip. The nozzle tip includes a downstream face, and a plurality of outlet passageways that each include an opening defined in the downstream face. Each opening includes respective X-, Y-, and Z-axes defined with respect to a tangent line, the radius, and the centerline. Each of the plurality of outlet passageways is at discharge angle of greater than 30° measured with respect to the respective Z-axis in a respective X-Z plane.

What is claimed is: 1. A nozzle for channeling a fluid into a combustor assembly, said nozzle comprising:a body including a centerline;a first passageway extending through said body along said centerline;a second passageway extending through said body, said second passageway substantially circumscribes at least a portion of said first passageway; anda nozzle tip coupled to a downstream end of said first passageway and to said second passageway, said nozzle tip having a radius extending from a center of said nozzle tip to an outer surface of said nozzle tip, said nozzle tip comprising:a downstream face;a first outlet passageway extending through said downstream face, said first outlet passageway in flow communication with said first passageway; anda plurality of second outlet passageways that each comprise an opening defined in said downstream face, each of said plurality of second outlet passageways having an inlet in flow communication with said second passageway, wherein each opening disposed radially outward from the inlet with respect to the centerline, each opening comprises respective X-, Y-, and Z-axes defined with respect to a tangent line, said radius, and said centerline, each of said plurality of outlet passageways is at discharge angle between about 30° and about 45° measured with respect to said respective Z-axis in a respective X-Z plane.
