ABSTRACT:
A rigid fuel manifold system for use in a gas turbine engine which is resistant to vibrations from operation of the engine. The system comprises two fuel feed manifolds, a fuel drain manifold and support brackets which attach these manifolds to one another and provide a structure with a high natural frequency above the 1/rev of the engine operating range. Structural support brackets that permit easy assembly and low installation stress are also provided.
