{{About|networks of fluid channels||Manifold (disambiguation)}}{{refimprove|date=February 2018}}A manifold is a wide and/or bigger pipe, or channel, into which smaller pipes or channels lead.[1] ManifoldsTypes of manifolds in engineering include: - Exhaust manifold, an engine part which collects the exhaust gases from multiple cylinders into one pipe. Also known as headers.
- Hydraulic manifold, a component used to regulate fluid flow in a hydraulic system, thus controlling the transfer of power between actuators and pumps
- Inlet manifold or "intake manifold", an engine part which supplies the air or fuel/air mixture to the cylinders
- Manifold (scuba), in a scuba set, connects two or more diving cylinders
- Vacuum gas manifold, an apparatus used in chemistry to manipulate gases
- Many dredge pipe pieces
In biology manifolds are found in: - Cardiovascular system - blood vessel manifolds etc.
- Lymphatic system
- Respiratory system
