Abstract
A method of assembling an annular combustion chamber assembly comprises positioning a plurality of first combustion chamber segments circumferentially side by side to form an annulus and removably securing the downstream end of each first combustion chamber segment to a first ring to form a first assembly. The method comprises positioning a plurality of second combustion chamber segments circumferentially side by side to form an annulus, removably securing the downstream end of each second combustion chamber segment to a second ring to form a second assembly. The method comprises removably securing the upstream end of each second combustion chamber segment of the second assembly to an annular upstream end wall. The method comprises inserting the second assembly into the first assembly and then removably securing the upstream end of each first combustion chamber segment of the first assembly to the annular upstream end wall to form the annular combustion chamber assembly.
