A centripetal-flow airbleed system for a gas-turbine engine including an annular support affixed to first and second disks of a compressor of the engine and having a plurality of peripherally spaced orifices defined along the radius thereof, a plurality of airbleed tubes each mounted in a substantially radial manner in one of the orifices of the annular support, and a vibration reduction device for reducing vibrations of the airbleed tubes. The device includes a plurality of damping tubes each mounted in one of the orifices of the annular support. The radially inner end of the damping tube encloses a portion of the airbleed tube and delimits an annular space defined therebetween.

1. A centripetal-flow airbleed system for a gas-turbine engine having a compressor including first and second disks comprising: an annular support affixed to said first and second disks and having a plurality of peripherally spaced orifices defined along the radius thereof; a plurality of airbleed tubes each mounted in a substantially radial manner in one of said orifices of said annular support; and a vibration reducing device including a plurality of damping tubes each mounted in one of said orifices of said annular support and enclosing a radially outer portion of a respective one of said airbleed tubes, a radially inner end of said damping tube enclosing a portion of said airbleed tube and delimiting an annular space defined therebetween. 2. The system of claim 1 wherein said radially inner end of the damping tube is constricted sufficiently to contact a peripheral wall of the airbleed tube along a plurality of axial zones defined therebetween. 3. The system of claim 1 wherein the airbleed tube includes a boss extending from a radially outer surface thereof that engages with said radially inner end of said damping tube. 4. The system of claim 3 wherein the boss includes a plurality of flat surfaces defined along thereof.
