STAGED HIGH TEMPERATURE HEAT EXCHANGER
A staged high temperature heat exchanger (HEX) may comprise a first stage made from a first material and a second stage made from a second material. The first stage may comprise an inlet manifold configured to receive a flow of fluid. The second stage may comprise an outlet manifold whereby the flow of fluid exits the HEX. The first stage is configured to withstand the temperature of the flow of fluid entering the inlet manifold and configured to reduce the temperature of the flow of fluid to an intermediate temperature before the flow of fluid reaches the second stage. In various embodiments, the first material may comprise a nickel-based superalloy having at least 40% of a Ni.sub.3(Al,X) precipitate phase, X being a metallic or refractory element other than Al.
Heat Exchanger for Gas Turbine Engine Mounted in Intermediate Case
A gas turbine engine has a compressor section including a lower pressure compressor and a higher pressure compressor, and a turbine section. A core engine housing surrounds the compressor section and the turbine section. An outer intermediate housing wall defines an internal chamber between the core housing and the outer intermediate housing. A fan rotor and a fan casing surround the fan rotor to define a bypass duct between the fan case and the outer intermediate housing. A heat exchanger is mounted in the internal chamber and receives high pressure air for cooling the high pressure air and delivering the high pressure air into the core engine housing to be utilized as cooling air for a component. Air from the lower pressure compressor is utilized to cool the higher pressure air in the heat exchanger.
