<p>A gas turbine engine is disclosed having a vane disposed in a flow path of a gas turbine engine component, for example a gas turbine engine compressor. The vane is in thermal contact with a heat tube that extends through a wall of the engine component and into a space in which a thermal fluid passes. The thermal fluid can be at a different temperature than the vane such that heat is transferred between the two. In one embodiment the vane forms part of an intercooler for a compressor of the gas turbine engine. The vane can have a fin disposed at the end of the heat tube to facilitate a heat transfer.</p> |
