  • Publication number: 20240093642
    Abstract: A gas turbine engine includes a fan located at a forward portion of the gas turbine engine, a compressor section and a turbine section arranged in serial flow order. The compressor section and the turbine section together define a core airflow path. A rotary member is rotatable with at least a portion of the compressor section and with at least a portion of the turbine section. An outlet guide vane assembly includes multiple outlet guide vanes located in an exhaust airflow path downstream of the turbine section. The multiple outlet guide vanes being spaced-apart circumferentially from each other over an angular range of about 360 degrees, and each multiple outlet guide vane defining a radial extent. At least one of the multiple outlet guide vanes includes a cold fluid passageway and another of the multiple guide vanes includes a heated fluid passageway.

  • Publication number: 20230043809
    Abstract: A gas turbine engine is provided including a turbomachine having a compressor section, a combustion section, and a turbine section arranged in serial flow order; a rotor assembly driven by the turbomachine, the rotor assembly, the turbomachine, or both comprising a substantially annular duct relative to the centerline of the gas turbine engine, the annular duct defining a flowpath; a heat exchanger positioned within the annular duct and extending substantially continuously along the circumferential direction, the heat exchanger comprising a first material defining a heat exchange surface exposed to the flowpath, wherein the first material defines a heat exchange coefficient and wherein the heat exchange surface defines a surface area (A), and wherein the heat exchanger has an effective transmission loss (ETL) of between 5 decibels and 1 decibel for an operating condition.
