  • FREQUENCY-TUNABLE BRACKETLESS FLUID MANIFOLD
    Publication number: 20140310959
    Abstract: A method of assembling a fluid manifold includes: providing an array of spaced-apart manifold fittings, each manifold fitting having: a generally tubular neck; a pair of spaced-apart generally tubular arms extending away from a first end of the neck; and a coupling connected to a second end of the neck; and placing each manifold fitting in a predetermined angular orientation; and providing a plurality of curved tubes, and coupling one end of each tube to one arm of each of two adjacent ones of the manifold fittings, such that the assembled manifold has a predetermined first natural frequency.
