GAS TURBINE ENGINE FUEL CONVEYING MEMBER

摘要

A fuel conveying member of a gas turbine engine is described and includes a fuel manifold defining an annular fuel flow passage through a body of the fuel manifold. A plurality of fuel nozzles extend from the manifold in fluid flow communication with the annular fuel flow passage. The fuel manifold includes integral attachment lugs thereon for mounting the fuel manifold within the gas turbine engine. The attachment lugs are adapted to receive pins therein and provide a mounting mechanism which allows for thermal expansion of the fuel manifold relative to a surrounding support structure to which the fuel manifold is mounted via the attachment lugs.
