Abstract
A double dome combustor for a gas turbine engine includes first and second domes joined to outer and inner liners. Two radially spaced apart rows of air swirlers are fixedly mounted to the first and second domes, respectively, with each of the swirlers including a radially extending strut, with pairs of struts being fixedly joined together for providing rigidity of the first and second domes for accommodating pressure loading thereon.
