A gas turbine engine includes a fan, a compressor section, a combustor, a fan drive gear system, and a turbine section coupled to drive the fan through the gear system. The combustor includes an annular outer shell and an annular inner shell that define an annular combustion chamber. There is a bulkhead in the annular combustion chamber, and an annular heat shield is mounted on the bulkhead. The annular heat shield includes a segment that has a forward face and an aft face, a circumferential outer side and a circumferential inner side, a central orifice between the forward face and the aft face, a lip projecting from the forward face around the central orifice, a rail projecting from the forward face, and a plurality of through-holes between the rail and the lip. The rail contacts the bulkhead to define a cavity bounded by the rail, the lip, and the bulkhead.
