For a rotary electric machine housing, a cooling jacket and compressed air flow passages are formed on an outer circumferential side of the cooling jacket. On an outer side wall of the rotary electric machine housing, a terminal casing is formed and electric terminal portions are accommodated in the terminal casing. Air bleed ports are formed in a shroud case of a gas turbine engine. Compressed air that is compressed by a compressor wheel flows into the air bleed ports. The compressed air that has passed through the air bleed ports flows through air bleed passages formed in an engine housing and the compressed air flow passages. Then, the compressed air reaches the terminal casing.

A generator housing is arranged in the tail cone. The generator housing includes an outer surface portion spaced from the inner surface of the tail cone. A generator is mounted in the generator housing. An air duct extends from the generator, through the generator housing, through the tail cone, and through the engine duct. The air duct includes an opening exposed to an air stream passing over the engine duct.

A bypass turbine engine includes a fixed casing, a first shaft (low-pressure shaft), a second shaft (high-pressure shaft), at least one accessory to be driven by a motor powered with electrical energy, a first intermediate shaft tapping mechanical power off the low-pressure shaft, a second intermediate shaft tapping mechanical power off the high-pressure shaft, and an electrical energy generator assembly coupled to the first and second intermediate shafts so as to receive mechanical power from the first and second intermediate shafts.

A pressure reduction system may include an alternator with a casing and a rotor positioned, at least in part, within a cavity defined by the casing. The pressure reduction system may also include a mass management system that includes a control tank configured to be maintained at a tank pressure lower than a cavity pressure within the cavity of the alternator, thereby forming a pressure differential. A first transfer conduit may transfer a working fluid from the cavity of the alternator to the control tank via the pressure differential. The mass management system may be positioned at an elevation above the alternator, and include a refrigeration loop configured to cool the working fluid contained within the control tank. A second transfer conduit may fluidly couple the alternator and the mass management system, and may transfer the cooled working fluid from the control tank to the cavity via gravitational force.

A housing for a bearing cavity in a gas turbine engine is disclosed. The housing comprise features that mitigate heat transfer from a heat source in the gas turbine engine to the nearby bearing cavity to prevent exposing the oil in the bearing cavity to excessively high temperatures. The housing comprises an annular flange that defines one or more barriers to heat transfer from the heat source to the bearing cavity.
