ABSTRACT:
To provide a gas turbine engine which is simple in structure but can effectively remove foreign matters from the combustion air.The intake passage21includes an inlet portion29, a curved portion30and a reduced diameter portion31. The bypass duct24is curved away from the central axial line CL in a region corresponding to the curved portion30and reduced diameter portion31of the intake passage29. Between the intake passage29and bypass duct24is defined an annular space32. In the reduced diameter portion31, the outer liner20is formed with a large number of foreign matter introduction openings33in a circumferential arrangement for communication between the intake passage21and annular space32. The inner casing4is formed with a plurality of foreign matter ejection holes34in a circumferential arrangement in a part thereof that curves outward for communication between the annular space32and bypass duct24.
