    Date of Patent: February 18, 2020
    Assignee: General Electric Company
    Inventor: Scott Chandler Morton
  • System for temperature and actuation control and method of controlling fluid temperatures in an aircraft
    Patent number: 9656762
    Abstract: A system for fluid temperature control and actuation control for an aircraft engine fueled by dual fuels. The system includes a first fuel system having a first fuel tank fluidly coupled to the engine, a second fuel system having a second fuel tank fluidly coupled to the engine, with the second fuel being different from the first fuel and having a different temperature than the first fuel, a fuel distribution unit (FDU) fluidly coupled to the first fuel tank of the first fuel system, and a fuel-to-fuel cooler (FFC) configured to transfer heat between the first fuel in the first fuel system and the second fuel in the second fuel system.
