ABSTRACT:
A low profile fuel injection system for a thrust augmenter to a gas turbine engine, for example, a turbofan engine, comprising fuel manifolds secured with the outer surface of the augmenter casing and arranged to receive fuel under pressure from a fuel source, fuel-connecting members containing flow channels and secured with the inner surface of the casing, injector valve heads containing fuel metering means and spaced circumferentially on the outer surface of the casing, and injector tubes having spray orifices and extending from the injector valve heads into the flow ducts within the casing. The elements are in communication with each other such that fuel from the fuel source is injected from the injector tubes into the gas flow within the augmenter to achieve additional engine thrust.
