Abstract: A cooling system for a gas turbine engine may comprise a plenum extending circumferentially around an outer engine case structure. The plenum may comprise a supply conduit and a return conduit. The supply conduit and the return conduit may be in fluid communication with a heat exchanger. The heat exchanger may be disposed between the outer engine case structure and an inner engine case structure. The plenum may be configured to provide enhance heat transfer for the cooling system.

Abstract: A method for cooling a rotatable nozzle includes rotating a curved seal about a seal land while maintaining contact therewith. Cooling air is directed through a first diffusion hole in the curved seal to cool the nozzle if the rotatable curved seal is in a first position where higher heat is encountered. Cool air is directed through a second diffusion hole in the curved seal to cool the nozzle if the rotatable curved seal is in a first position where higher heat is encountered and if in a second position where relatively lower heat is encountered.

Abstract: A blocker door assembly which may be for a cooling system that may be applied to a gas turbine engine includes a plurality of blocker doors circumferentially spaced about an engine axis. Each blocker door is constructed and arranged to move in a circumferential direction to, at least in-part, control air flow through a passage in an adjacent fixture. A sync-ring is concentrically located about the engine axis, disposed in an annular first duct in direct communication with each passage, and engaged to each one of the plurality of blocker doors for simultaneous operation. The sync-ring is aero-dynamically shaped to reduce surrounding airflow resistance.
