Abstract
A turbomachine includes a compressor, a turbine, and a combustor operatively coupled to the compressor and the turbine. The combustor includes a combustor casing having a flange, an outer surface and an inner surface that defines an internal passage. The combustor casing includes an extruded fluid manifold mounted to the outer surface. The extruded fluid manifold includes first and second walls integrally formed with a third, connecting, wall. The first wall includes a first mounting element and the second wall includes a second mounting element. The first mounting element extends axially along the combustor casing away from the first wall and the second mounting element extends axially along the combustor casing away from the second wall and the first mounting element. The extruded fluid manifold is joined to the outer surface of the combustor casing through the first and second mounting elements.
