    Abstract: A gas turbine engine is disclosed having a mixed-flow compressor and a connecting mixed-flow diffuser. The mixed-flow diffuser is disposed inside the annularly arranged combustion chambers and supplying them, from the direction of the radial interior side, in the reverse flow, with compressor air.
