A thermal management system for a gas turbine engine includes an additively manufactured nacelle component, at least a portion of the additively manufactured nacelle component forming an additively manufactured heat exchanger that extends into a fan bypass flow.

A turbine ventilation system includes a controller that is coupled to an actuator that is coupled to a vane that is disposed across an intake port between a gas turbine enclosure and the turbine ventilation system. The controller can cause the actuator to change a position of the vane to alter an air flow from the turbine ventilation system into the gas turbine enclosure based upon feedback from one or more sensors disposed within the gas turbine enclosure.

Various methods and systems are provided for a radial turbocharger. In one example, the turbocharger comprises a turbine case housing a turbine wheel and a compressor case housing a compressor wheel, the turbine case including a vaneless turbine nozzle integrated into the turbine case, a bearing case surrounding a shaft connecting the turbine wheel to the compressor wheel and arranged between the turbine case and compressor case, a plurality of long bolts arranged around a circumference of the turbine case, and a plurality of slots arranged around a circumference of the turbine case, a slot length of each slot extending in a radial direction and adapted to receive a dowel pin having a diameter smaller than the slot length, where each dowel pin, via a corresponding slot, couples the bearing case to the turbine case.

A magnetic fire seal for a nacelle may comprise an exterior surface configured to form a sealing interface and an interior surface opposite the exterior surface. A fire-resistant material may be disposed between the exterior surface and the interior surface. A magnet may be located at the interior surface proximate the sealing interface. A portion of the fire-resistant material may be located between the magnet and the exterior surface.

A coupling guard for a rotor, which includes a housing for enclosing the rotor in an inner space of the housing, the housing extending longitudinally along a length of the rotor; a ventilation system for creating a flow of gas in the inner space from a gas inlet to a gas outlet that exhausts outside. The gas inlet includes a pipe extending along a pipe longitudinal axis from outside to inside the housing. The pipe includes a first opening located outside the housing and a second opening located inside the housing in the inner space. The pipe has the second opening close to the rotor when the housing encloses the latter. The second opening has a curved edge wherein a projection of the curved edge onto a plane extending parallel to the longitudinal axis of the pipe and parallel to the axis of longitudinal extension is a segment of curve.
