Abstract: An oil scavenge system includes a tangential scavenge scoop and a settling area adjacent thereto which separately communicate with a duct which feeds oil into an oil flow path and back to an oil sump. A shield is mounted over the settling area to at least partially shield the collecting liquid oil from interfacial shear. A multiple of apertures are located through the shield to permit oil flow through the shield and into the duct. The scavenge scoop forms a partition which separates the duct into a first portion and a second portion. The first portion processes upstream air/oil mixture that is captured by the tangential scoop while the second portion receives the oil collected in the settling area.

Abstract: Seal 20 and seal ring 26 form annulus 36 which collects weepage oil which is removed through holes 54. Air flow pumped by face 58 of seal ring 26 is minimized by locating flange 64 close to the outer radius of the seal ring, thereby facilitating collection of all weepage oil.
