Claim 14:
15. A gas turbine engine, comprising:
a diffuser;
a combustor downstream from the diffuser in a direction of a working fluid flow through the gas turbine engine; and
a canted deswirl system downstream from the diffuser and upstream from the combustor, the canted deswirl system including a deswirl shroud, at least one deswirl vane and a deswirl hub spaced apart from the deswirl shroud by the at least one deswirl vane, the deswirl hub including a hub body that extends at a first angle relative to the diffuser, the hub body includes a first hub end opposite a second hub end, the second hub end is downstream from the deswirl shroud and includes a hub extension that extends from the second hub end beyond the deswirl shroud, the hub extension extending from the hub body at a second angle, the second angle is greater than the first angle and the second angle is based on a distance defined between the second hub end and a centerline of a quench hole associated with the combustor.
