Abstract: A method of cooling a gas turbine engine case assembly includes moving a fan air valve that is operatively connected to a pre-cooler having a bypass inlet that is configured to receive bypass air that bypasses a gas turbine engine core to facilitate a provision of bypass air through a fan air valve inlet to the bypass inlet to a first open position, in response to a core compartment temperature being greater than a target core compartment temperature. The method further includes bleeding the bypass air through a bypass outlet of the pre-cooler into a core compartment.

Abstract: A gas turbine engine system includes a gas turbine engine, a temperature-sensitive component, and a thermal protection structure. The gas turbine engine has an engine core that generates heat while operational and for a period after operation. The temperature-sensitive component is disposed at a component location proximate the engine core. The thermal protection structure is interposed between the temperature-sensitive component and the gas turbine-engine, and includes a phase change material (PCM) layer disposed to absorb a transient heat spike from the engine core.

Abstract: A method of controlling an aircraft bleed may include the steps of monitoring a temperature of a precooled airflow exiting a precooler, and determining a status of a wing anti-ice system of an aircraft. The wing anti-ice system may be configured to receive the precooled airflow from the precooler. The method may further comprise the steps of determining whether an engine operating condition of the aircraft is within an icing envelope, selecting a temperature set point for the precooled airflow based on the status of the wing anti-ice system and whether the aircraft is within an icing envelope, and modulating a fan airflow from a fan to the precooler to adjust the temperature of the precooled airflow to the temperature set point.
