Abstract
A gas turbine engine includes: at least one fuel pump arranged outside a casing; at least one electric motor that is arranged outside the casing and drives the at least one fuel pump; a fuel inflow member including a fuel inflow passage through which fuel to be sucked by the fuel pump flows; and a fuel outflow member including a fuel outflow passage through which the fuel discharged from the fuel pump flows toward a combustor. The fuel inflow member includes a heat exchanger portion that is thermally connected to the electric motor. The heat exchanger portion is adjacent to the electric motor and cools the electric motor by heat exchange between the electric motor and the fuel flowing through the heat exchanger portion.
