Zusammenfassung: | An apparatus and method for cooling a fluid within a turbine engine (10). A fan casing assembly (18) for the turbine engine (10) can include an annular fan casing (38) with a peripheral wall (43) having a flow path (14) defined through the casing (38). A fan casing cooler (50) includes a body (70) to confront the peripheral wall (43) with at least one conduit (74) configured to carry a flow of heated fluid to convectively cool the heated fluid with a flow of air (72) through the flow path (14). The body comprises at least one thermally sensitive portion configured to, in response to a change in a thermal condition, passively position at least a portion of the fan casing cooler into the air flowting through the fan casing. |
