Abstract

See full text

A fuel manifold and fuel injector arrangement for a gas turbine engine combustion chamber comprises an annular combustion chamber casing arranged around the combustion chamber. A plurality of circumferentially spaced fuel injectors supply fuel into the combustion chamber and a fuel manifold supplies fuel to each of the fuel injectors. The fuel manifold comprises a plurality of flexible fuel pipes and a plurality of T piece connectors. The stem of each connector is mounted on an outer end of a respective one of the fuel feed arms and each flexible fuel pipe interconnects an arm of one connector with an arm of an adjacent connector. Each connector is arranged such that the arms are arranged at angles to the planes containing the axis of the casing and perpendicular to the axis of the casing respectively.
