FUEL SUPPLY SYSTEM FOR A GAS TURBINE COMBUSTOR

摘要

A fuel supply system 100 for a gas turbine combustor 24 includes a fuel distribution manifold 102. A first fuel circuit 104 extends from the fuel distribution manifold 102 in a first circumferential direction around an outer surface of the outer casing and provides for fluid communication from the fuel distribution manifold 102, through the outer casing and to at least one fuel injector disposed within the outer casing. A second fuel circuit 106 extends from the fuel distribution manifold 102 in a second circumferential direction around the outer surface of the outer casing. The second fuel circuit 106 provides for fluid communication from the fuel distribution manifold 102, through the outer casing and to at least one fuel injector within the outer casing. In particular configurations, the fuel supply system includes a shield 132 that surrounds at least a portion of the outer casing and at least partially encases the first fuel circuit 104 and the second fuel circuit 106.
