A direction of a centreline (106) of the heat exchanger duct (105) has a tangential component with respect to a principal rotational axis (192) of the gas turbine engine (10) at one or more of the inlet region (110), the inflection region (135) and the outlet region (120). The heat exchanger (130) is disposed within the inflection region (135) and configured to transfer heat generated by the gas turbine engine (10) into the flow of air as it passes through the inflection region (135).",
