Surface cooler support mechanism
A heat exchanger or surface cooler 150 comprises a body 160 having a plurality of cooling channels 166 and a plurality of heat exchange fins 170 adjacent to the cooling channels. The body 160 has two ribs 162, 164 extending along the length of the body 160 that fit into grooves 182, 192 in fore and...

Zusammenfassung: | A heat exchanger or surface cooler 150 comprises a body 160 having a plurality of cooling channels 166 and a plurality of heat exchange fins 170 adjacent to the cooling channels. The body 160 has two ribs 162, 164 extending along the length of the body 160 that fit into grooves 182, 192 in fore and aft support brackets 180, 190 that contain a low friction wear material 120 and an isolator sheet 130. The isolator sheet 130 may be compressible to provide a spring force or damping. The low friction material 120 may be a PEEK material. The brackets 180, 190 and low friction material 120 may be curved to allow circumferential movement of the ribs 162, 164. The heat exchanger and mounting brackets are particularly suited for using intake air to cool aircraft engine fluid in a gas turbine engine (10, Fig. 1). |
