Abstract: A surface cooler having a first cooling passage section configured to be operably coupled to a fan casing of an aircraft engine, the cooling passage section having a heat exchanger body defining a first distal end and a second distal end and having a set of fluid passages internal to the heat exchanger body and a first set of fins located on a first exterior surface of the heat exchanger body and a manifold operably coupled to a first distal end of the cooling passage section and wherein the manifold includes a manifold body having an interior fluidly coupled to at least one of the set of fluid passages and a second set of fins located on the manifold body to define a finned manifold and a method for forming same.

Abstract: A method and assembly for conveying heat from a heat exchanger having a housing defining a fluid pathway including at least one fluid passageway leading from an inlet port of the heat exchanger to an outlet port of the heat exchanger, the housing have a first side and a second side, opposite the first side where the housing includes at least one aperture extending through the housing from the first side to the second side and where the aperture is fluidly separate from the fluid pathway and heat from liquid flowing through the fluid pathway is transferred via at least one of conduction or convection to the housing.

Abstract: A surface heat exchanger is provided which utilizes forward and aft brackets to retain the heat exchanger in position. The surface heat exchanger includes a plurality of core cooling channels as well as fins which are disposed for air flow through the gas turbine engine. The brackets include a low-friction wear material as well as an isolator sheet which provides some spring force on the heat exchanger.
