Abstract: An assembly of a combustor and fuel manifold comprises a fuel manifold having at least an annular portion with a plurality of fuel outlets facing at least partially radially inward. A combustor comprises an annular inner liner and an annular outer liner spaced apart from the inner liner, the inner liner and outer liner concurrently forming an annular combustor chamber therebetween. The inner and outer liners concurrently define an annular receptacle in the annular combustor chamber for receiving the fuel manifold. The inner liner and outer liners are shaped to define an annular gas path in the annular combustor chamber having an upstream portion that is substantially radial and oriented toward a center when the combustor is in a gas turbine engine.
