  • High pressure air source for aircraft and engine requirements
    Patent number: 5511374
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for supplying cooling air on vehicles such as high speed aircraft includes diverting high pressure air from the compressor section of a gas turbine engine, cooling this air in a heat exchanger, compressing the air and subsequently cooling the air in a second heat exchanger to provide cooled, high pressure air. One embodiment additionally provides cooled air at relatively medium pressure and relatively low pressure, while the alternate embodiment additionally provides cooled air at relatively low pressure.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 31, 1995
    Date of Patent: April 30, 1996
    Assignee: United Technologies Corporation
    Inventors: Marvin R. Glickstein, James T. Dixon, Donald M. Podolsky

  • Aircraft cooling method
    Patent number: 5414992
    Abstract: A method for supplying cooling air on vehicles such as high speed aircraft includes diverting high pressure air from the compressor section of a gas turbine engine, cooling this air in a heat exchanger, and expanding the diverted high pressure air through an auxiliary turbine. Coolant in the heat exchanger may be inlet ram air, fan air, or aircraft fuel (which may be endothermic), and the coolant is ultimately introduced into the engine downstream of the compressor section. An auxiliary compressor may be used to further compress the diverted high pressure air or coolant prior to the flowing thereof through the heat exchanger, and one or more auxiliary turbines may be used to power the auxiliary compressor, or mechanical accessories on the vehicle.
