Abstract

The present invention relates to a bleed deflector for a gas turbine engine. The bleed deflector comprises an inlet portion for receiving bleed air from the engine, a perforated top plate for discharging the bleed air into a duct, and an aerodynamically shaped strut for positioning the perforated top plate above an inner wall of the duct to allow dilution air to flow beneath the top plate.
