Abstract

There is disclosed a flow deflector arrangement for use in combination with a pipe arrangement (58) secured through a component (59), the flow deflector arrangement comprising: a nut (30) to secure the pipe arrangement (58) to said component (59), and a shroud (46) configured for attachment to said component (59) so as to extend at least partially around the pipe arrangement (58) when the pipe arrangement is secured to said component (59) by the nut (30). The nut (30) has an outwardly directed flange (34) configured to adopt a position spaced from said component (59), and the shroud (46) defines at least one deflector surface (54a, 65) which, when the shroud is attached to said component (59) around the pipe arrangement, extends away from said component (59) in spaced relation to the pipe arrangement. The flange (34) and said at least one deflector surface (54a, 65) are configured to cooperate in deflecting a flow of fluid flowing from said component (59) and along the outside of the pipe arrangement (58) such that the flow is deflected generally outwardly from the pipe arrangement (58) with a degree of swirl (60). The flow deflector may be provided within a gas turbine engine (10) in which said component (59) is a turbine case, and said pipe arrangement (58) is a service pipe assembly.
