Gas turbine engine fuel manifold damper and method of dynamics attenuation
Abstract:
The present disclosure is directed to a fuel manifold assembly for a gas turbine engine. The fuel manifold assembly defines a walled conduit through which a fuel flows in a fuel passage. The walled conduit defines a first end and a second end opposite of the first end along a length of the walled conduit. The fuel manifold assembly includes an exit manifold to which a fuel nozzle attaches. The fuel manifold assembly includes a damper assembly coupled to the walled conduit of the fuel manifold assembly. The damper assembly includes a walled tube extended from the walled conduit. The damper assembly further includes a walled enclosure defining a damper cavity therein. The damper cavity is in fluid communication with a damper passage defined within the walled tube, and the damper passage is in fluid communication with the fuel passage.
