    Abstract: A component for a gas turbine engine. The component includes a body. The body has an exterior surface abutting a flowpath for the flow of a hot combustion gas through the gas turbine engine. Further, the body defines a cooling passageway within the body to supply cool air to the component. The component includes a leading face and a trailing face defining a trench therebetween on the exterior surface. The body defines a plurality of cooling holes extending between the cooling passageway and a plurality of outlets defined in the trench such that the trench is fluidly coupled to the cooling passageway. Additionally, the leading face and trailing face are each tangent to at least one of the plurality of outlets. The trench directs the cool air along a contour of the component.

    Abstract: A method is provided of controlling a cooled cooling air system for an aeronautical gas turbine engine. The method includes: receiving data indicative of an ambient condition of the aeronautical gas turbine engine, data indicative of a deterioration parameter of the aeronautical gas turbine engine, data indicative of an operating condition of the aeronautical gas turbine engine, or a combination thereof; and modifying a cooling capacity of the cooled cooling air system in response to the received data indicative of the ambient condition of the aeronautical gas turbine engine, data indicative of the deterioration parameter of the aeronautical gas turbine engine, data indicative of an operating condition of the aeronautical gas turbine engine, or the combination thereof.
