ABSTRACT:
A gas turbine engine (10) includes a catalytic oxidation element (62). The catalytic oxidation element includes a pressure boundary element (24) receiving a first fluid flow (16). An opening (28) in an upstream portion (26) of the pressure boundary element allows fluid communication across the pressure boundary element between the first and a second fluid flow (20) to generate a combustion mixture flow (30). A catalytic surface (34) disposed on a downstream portion (32) of the pressure boundary element is exposed to the combustion mixture flow for at least partially combusting the combustion mixture flow.
