Abstract

A fluid cooler (24) for installation in a bypass duct (22) of a turbofan gas turbine engine and associated methods are provided. The fluid cooler (24) includes an inlet duct (62), a heat exchanger (40) and an outlet duct (64). The inlet duct (62) includes an inlet (32) protruding into the bypass duct (22) to receive a portion of the bypass air (b) into the inlet duct (62). The heat exchanger (40) is in fluid communication with the inlet duct (62). The heat exchanger (40) facilitates heat transfer between a fluid (F) and the portion of bypass air (b) received into the inlet duct (62). The heat exchanger (40) defines a general flow direction for the portion of bypass air (b) that is different from the main flow direction (D1) of bypass air (B) inside the bypass duct (22). The outlet duct (64) conveys the portion of bypass air (b) from the heat exchanger (40) back to the bypass duct (40).
