Abstract: A gas turbine engine comprises a compressor rotor including blades and a disk, with a bore defined radially inwardly of the disk, and a combustor. A tap directs the products of combustion first to a valve and then into the bore of the disk. At least two temperature sensors sense a temperature of the products of combustion downstream of the valve. A control compares sensed temperatures from the at least two temperature sensors to ensure the at least two temperature sensors are functioning properly. The sensed temperatures are utilized to control the valve. A method of operating a gas turbine engine is also disclosed.

Abstract: A heat exchanger array includes a first row of heat exchangers, a second row of heat exchangers, and side curtains. The first row heat exchangers are spaced apart to define first gaps. The second row heat exchangers are spaced apart to define second gaps and are positioned downstream of and staggered from the first row heat exchangers such that the second row heat exchangers are aligned with the first gaps and the first row heat exchangers are aligned with the second gaps. Each side curtain is in close proximity to a first row heat exchanger and a second row heat exchanger. The side curtains define a neck region upstream of and aligned with each first row heat exchanger and each second row heat exchanger. Each neck region has a neck area that is less than a frontal area of the heat exchanger with which it is aligned.

Abstract: A gas turbine engine has a compressor section including a lower pressure compressor and a higher pressure compressor, and a turbine section. A core engine housing surrounds the compressor section and the turbine section. An outer intermediate housing wall defines an internal chamber between the core housing and the outer intermediate housing. A fan rotor and a fan casing surround the fan rotor to define a bypass duct between the fan case and the outer intermediate housing. A heat exchanger is mounted in the internal chamber and receives high pressure air for cooling the high pressure air and delivering the high pressure air into the core engine housing to be utilized as cooling air for a component. Air from the lower pressure compressor is utilized to cool the higher pressure air in the heat exchanger.

Abstract: A gas turbine engine has a core engine with a compressor section and a turbine section. The compressor section includes a low pressure compressor and a high pressure compressor. A cooling air system taps compressed air and passes the compressed air through a heat exchanger. Cooling air passes over the heat exchanger to cool the compressed air, which is returned to the core engine to provide a cooling function. The heat exchanger is mounted through a flexible mount allowing movement between a static structure and the heat exchanger.
