Abstract
A fuel system a main manifold with an inlet and a plurality of main manifold branches. Each valve in a plurality of valves is connected in fluid communication with a respective one of the main manifold branches in the plurality of main manifold branches to receive flow from the main manifold. Each secondary manifold in a plurality of secondary manifolds connects a single one of the valves in the plurality of valves to a pair of secondary manifold branches. Each nozzle in a plurality of fuel nozzles includes a first inlet connected in fluid communication to one of the valves through one of the secondary manifold branches, and a second inlet connected in fluid communication to a different one of the valves through a different one of the secondary manifold branches so each of the fuel nozzles has a redundant connection to the main manifold through two of the valves.
