US Patent 9151226 Corrugated mid-turbine frame thermal radiation shield

A corrugated shield comprises a mounting base and a corrugated ring section. The mounting base is disposed at an aft end of the ring section for securing the shield ring section within a generally annular cavity. The generally annular cavity is defined at least in part by a hot fluid flow path boundary wall, and a radially adjacent and spaced apart cold fluid flow path boundary wall. The corrugated ring section is configured to substantially block a line of sight between the hot fluid flow path boundary wall and the cold fluid flow path boundary wall.
