A nozzle includes an inlet, an outlet, and an axial centerline. A shroud surrounding the axial centerline extends from the inlet to the outlet and defines a circumference. The circumference proximate the inlet is greater than the circumference at a first point downstream of the inlet, and the circumference at the first point downstream of the inlet is less than the circumference at a second point downstream of the first point. A method for supplying a fuel through a nozzle directs a first airflow along a first path and a second airflow along a second path separate from the first path. The method further includes injecting the fuel into at least one of the first path or the second path and accelerating at least one of the first airflow or the second airflow.

1. A nozzle, comprising: a. an axial centerline;b. a center body disposed about the axial centerline, wherein the center body includes a leading edge, a trailing edge downstream of the leading edge, and an air flow path completely through the center body from the leading edge to the trailing edge along the axial centerline;c. a shroud surrounding the center body and defining a circumference and a downstream end;d. a plurality of vanes between the center body and the shroud;e. wherein the circumference of the shroud proximate the leading edge of the center body is greater than the circumference of the shroud proximate the trailing edge of the center body and the circumference of the shroud increases at a point downstream of the trailing edge of the center body; andf. a combustion chamber downstream from the downstream end of the shroud. 2. The nozzle of claim 1, wherein the shroud defines a cylinder downstream of the trailing edge of the center body. 3. The nozzle of claim 1, wherein the leading edge and the trailing edge of the center body define an airfoil shape cross-section. 4. The nozzle of claim 1, wherein at least some of the plurality of vanes are angled approximately 0 degrees to 60 degrees with respect to the axial centerline. 5. The nozzle of claim 1, further including a plurality of fuel ports in at least one of the center body, the shroud, or the plurality of vanes. 6. The nozzle of claim 5, wherein at least some of the plurality of fuel ports are angled approximately 25 degrees to 90 degrees with respect to the axial centerline. 7. The nozzle of claim 1, wherein at least some of the plurality of vanes extend continuously between the center body and the shroud. 8. The nozzle of claim 1, wherein the shroud extends continuously along an axial length of the center body. 9. The nozzle of claim 1, wherein the shroud defines a cylinder at the downstream end. 10. The nozzle of claim 1, wherein the center body includes at least one fuel port on an outer surface of the center body. 11. A nozzle, comprising: a. an inlet;b. an outlet downstream of the inlet;c. an axial centerline between the inlet and the outlet;d. a center body disposed about the axial centerline, wherein the center body defines an air flow path completely through the center body along the axial centerline and includes at least one fuel port on an outer surface of the center body;e. a shroud surrounding the axial centerline, extending from the inlet to the outlet, and defining a circumference;f. wherein the circumference of the shroud proximate the inlet is greater than the circumference of the shroud at a first point downstream of the inlet;g. wherein the circumference of the shroud at the first point downstream of the inlet is less than the circumference of the shroud at a second point downstream of the first point; andh. a combustion chamber downstream from the outlet. 12. The nozzle of claim 11, wherein the center body has a leading edge and a trailing edge downstream of the leading edge and the leading edge and the trailing edge of the center body define an airfoil shape cross-section. 13. The nozzle of claim 12, further including a plurality of vanes between the center body and the shroud. 14. The nozzle of claim 13, wherein at least some of the plurality of vanes are angled approximately 0 degrees to 60 degrees with respect to the axial centerline. 15. The nozzle of claim 13, further including a plurality of fuel ports in at least one of the center body, the shroud, and the plurality of vanes. 16. The nozzle of claim 13, wherein at least some of the plurality of vanes extend continuously between the center body and the shroud. 17. The nozzle of claim 11, wherein the shroud extends continuously from the inlet to the outlet. 18. The nozzle of claim 9, wherein the shroud defines a cylinder at the outlet.
