Abstract
An equilibrating flow distributor for a gas turbine engine includes a balancing valve and multiple flow dividers, each with a movable valve or divider member. The balancing valve has an inlet receiving media at a first pressure area and an outlet defining a plurality of first metering orifices. The valve member defines at least one second metering orifice receiving the media at a second pressure area. Each flow divider has an inlet receiving the media through an associated one of the first metering orifices at a third pressure area and an outlet defining one of a plurality of third metering orifices receiving the media at a fourth pressure area. Each flow divider has a second pressure area in communication with second pressure area of the balancing valve. Flow through the fourth pressure area of each flow divider is substantially the same.
