Abstract
A gas turbine engine comprises an exhaust section member, a turbine section member, a heat shield and a spacer. The turbine section member is coupled to the exhaust section member. The heat shield is retained between the exhaust section member and the turbine section member. The spacer is positioned between the exhaust section member and the turbine section member to produce a gap for the heat shield. In one embodiment, the exhaust section member comprises a duct and the turbine section member comprises a bearing support.
