Abstract

An exhaust casing for a gas turbine engine comprises a shroud configured to surround an exhaust cone, and a heat shield attached to the shroud. The heat shield has a first end and a second end axially spaced apart from each other. A gap is defined radially between the shroud and the heat shield. The gap is configured to enclose at least a portion of an interface defined between at least one strut and the shroud. The exhaust casing is configured to surround the exhaust cone and configured to be connected to the exhaust cone via the at least one strut.
