HEAT EXCHANGERS FOR THERMAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS

摘要

A cooling system (100) for a gas turbine engine (10) includes a main fluid duct (106) with an inlet (112) and an outlet (110), a first heat exchanger (102), and a second heat exchanger (104). The first and second heat exchanger (102,104) are both in fluid communication with the main fluid duct (106) between the inlet (112) and the outlet (110) of the main fluid duct (106), and the second heat exchanger (104) is downstream of the first heat exchanger (102) for controlling heat transfer between compressor high-pressure bleed air traversing the first heat exchanger (102) and low-pressure ambient air traversing the second heat exchanger (104).
