New patent granted for: Conformal Heat Shield for Gas Turbine Engine

A conformal heat shield for a gas turbine engine may comprise a first section including a first arcuate segment and a second arcuate segment circumferentially adjacent to the first arcuate segment. The first arcuate segment and the second arcuate segment may each comprise a distal metal layer including a plurality of loops extending radially outward from the distal metal layer. A proximal metal layer may be located radially inward of the distal metal layer. An insulating material may be located between the distal metal layer and the proximal metal layer. A first strap may be located through the loops.
