An assembly includes: a fan drive reducing gear of an aircraft turbine engine, and a lubrication system including: a housing enclosing the reducing gear; a device for spraying lubricant onto the reducing gear; a lubricant supply pipe intended to convey the lubricant towards the spraying device; a lubricant recovery pipe communicating with a bottom of the housing; a controlled valve equipping the recovery pipe; and a lubricant overflow discharge pipe connected to an overflow outlet of the bottom of the housing situated above a horizontal level of a bottom point of a gearing of the reducing gear, and to the recovery pipe, downstream from the valve.

A component for a centrifugal degasser for an air/oil mixture of a turbomachine is disclosed. The degasser rotates about an axis of symmetry, forming an annular chamber for centrifugal separation of the mixture. The chamber forms a fluid passage duct, one inlet of which is oriented axially for supplying the chamber with the mixture, and a first outlet of which is oriented radially inwards for discharging the deoiled air separated from the mixture. The chamber also includes at least one second oil outlet oriented radially outwards and intended to discharge the oil separated from the mixture to the outside of the degasser. The chamber has longitudinal walls passing radially therethrough, at least one of the surfaces of the longitudinal walls having surface structures and/or corrugations arranged to form obstacles to a flow of the mixture along the surface of the longitudinal walls.

A ventilated chamber (19), subject to an irruption of air at a pressure higher than that in a surrounding chamber (20) through labyrinth seals separating them and evacuation of excess air through an evacuation duct (30), comprises a motor-driven compressor (32) in the evacuation duct to facilitate suction and evacuation, even when the engine speed does not allow a large overpressure in the chamber (20).

An oil reservoir assembly includes a tank, a return passage, a pressurization valve, a first passage, and a vent valve. The tank includes a canister, a fill port, an first oil outlet, an second air outlet, and an inlet. The inlet is disposed in the canister and is connected to a restrictor. The return passage is connected to the inlet of the tank and to a scavenge pump. The pressurization valve is fluidly connected to the second air outlet of the tank. The first passage is connected to the pressurization valve and to an accessory gearbox of the engine. The vent valve is disposed in the return passage and includes a body, a channel extending through the body, an inlet orifice, and an outlet orifice. The inlet orifice is disposed in an end of the body. The outlet orifice is fluidly connected to the inlet orifice via the channel.

An oil-gas treatment system, an oil-gas treatment method and a mechanical apparatus are disclosed. The oil-gas treatment system includes an oil-gas separation device and a first oil-gas delivery device. The oil-gas separation device is configured to perform an oil-gas separation treatment on oil-gas generated by an oil-gas generation device, the oil-gas separation device includes a lubrication oil box for containing lubrication oil; the first oil-gas delivery device is communicated with the lubrication oil box and is configured to convey at least a part of the oil-gas into the lubrication oil box; the lubrication oil box is configured to separate the oil-gas conveyed into the lubrication oil box, and a separated oil product is left in the lubrication oil box.

An electrical machine includes a stator assembly coupled to an engine stator component of a propulsion engine. The stator assembly includes a stator support assembly fixedly attached to the engine stator component and a stator disposed on a supporting surface of the stator support structure. The electrical machine also includes a rotor assembly including a rotor support structure connected to a shaft of the propulsion engine and a rotor attached to the rotor support structure such that the rotor is disposed radially inward of the stator. The rotor exchanges rotational energy with the shaft to operate as either an electrical motor or an electrical generator.

A method of performing maintenance on an aircraft engine includes removing a propeller shaft of the aircraft engine to form an access volume at a center of the aircraft engine. The access volume extends axially and radially relative to a center axis of the aircraft engine. The method includes performing maintenance on a lubricant strainer positioned at a location of the access volume where a carrier of the aircraft engine engages an output of the aircraft engine.

An aircraft turbine engine module, including a degassing tube and an ejection cone. The tube and the cone are engageable together by structures which cause them to be centered when engaged together. Also provided is a locating and adjusting tool for assembling the module.

A lubricant scavenging system for a turbine engine having a pair of concentric, counter-rotating shafts. The system comprises a lubricant sump housing having a radially inner surface, a pair of pedestal mounts each adapted to receive a bearing assembly from a respective shaft, a lubricant collection point axially disposed between the pedestal mounts, and a pair of axial channels adapted to guide lubricant toward the lubricant collection point.

A turbofan gas turbine engine includes heat exchanger module, fan assembly, compressor, turbine and exhaust modules. The fan includes a plurality of fan blades. The heat exchanger in fluid communicates with the fan assembly by an inlet duct, and the heat exchanger includes a plurality of radially-extending hollow vanes arranged in a circumferential array, with a channel extending axially between each pair of adjacent hollow vanes. An airflow entering the heat exchanger is divided between a set of vane airflows and a set of channel airflows. Each vane airflow has a vane mass flow rate Flow.sub.Vane, and each channel air flow has a channel mass flow rate Flow.sub.Chan. Each hollow vane includes, an inlet, heat transfer, and exhaust portions, with the inlet portion comprising a diffuser element and the heat transfer portion including at least one heat transfer element. The diffuser element causes Flow.sub.Vane to be lower than Flow.sub.Chan.
