Abstract
A double dome combustor for a gas turbine engine includes first and second domes joined to outer and inner liners. The first and second domes are joined together by two load transmitting structural paths for providing increased rigidity of the first and second domes for accommodating pressure loading from compressed airflow. In one exemplary embodiment, a dome cowl having first and second cowls is used to additionally join together the first and second domes.
