A turbine engine heat exchanger for exchanging heat between a first fluid and a second fluid includes a reference axis, a network of tubular meshes having a plurality of meshes each of which is formed, successively in a reference direction, of at least two curvilinear branches, called anterior branches, of a junction where the two anterior branches meet, and of at least two curvilinear branches, called posterior branches, diverging from the junction, wherein the first and second fluid have a respective general direction of flow, and the general direction of flow of the first fluid is parallel to the general direction of flow of the second fluid. The present disclosure also concerns a turbine engine comprising the heat exchanger and a manufacturing method for manufacturing the heat exchanger.

Fuel-oil heat exchanger

A turbine engine heat exchanger for exchanging heat between a first fluid and a second fluid includes a reference axis, a network of tubular meshes having a plurality of meshes each of which is formed, successively in a reference direction, of at least two curvilinear branches, called anterior branches, of a junction where the two anterior branches meet, and of at least two curvilinear branches, called posterior branches, diverging from the junction, wherein the body of the heat exchanger is of cylindrical shape. The present disclosure also concerns a turbine engine comprising the heat exchanger and a manufacturing method for manufacturing the heat exchanger.

A matrix for exchanging heat between a first fluid and a second fluid, in particular for an air-oil application in a turbine engine, includes an envelope defining a flow path of the first fluid and a network extending into the flow path and in which the second fluid flows. Along the axis defined by the curvature of the matrix, the dimensions of the envelope vary circumferentially (T(A)) and radially (R(A)). The matrix may be used with a heat exchanger.

Air-oil heat exchanger

An aircraft bypass turbojet engine lubrication unit includes from three to five superposed pumps, a body housing the pumps and an internal passage in the body for communicating with each of the pumps. The material of the body exhibits a stack of layers in a direction of stacking, the pumps being housed in the said stack of layers. The passage exhibits an end in the direction of stacking of the layers and an internal profile, for example triangular, with two straight lines which form the said end and which are inclined with respect to the stacked layers. The lubrication unit may be manufactured by additive manufacturing in layers.

Turbomachine lubrication unit and method of manufacture

A turbine engine heat exchanger for exchanging heat between a first fluid and a second fluid includes a reference axis, a network of tubular meshes having a plurality of meshes each of which is formed, successively in a reference direction, of at least two curvilinear branches, called anterior branches, of a junction where the two anterior branches meet, and of at least two curvilinear branches, called posterior branches, diverging from the junction, wherein the meshes are stacked in staggered rows.

A strainer for filtration in an oil circuit of a turbine engine, in particular a multi-flow turbojet engine, is housed in a bore of a lubrication assembly. The oil serves to lubricate and cool mechanisms of the turbine engine. The strainer includes a filtering portion as an angular tube portion and a holding structure for the filtering portion. The structure forms a thickening and exhibits rings and structural posts. A magnet is added in a socket formed by the structure. The structure and the filtering portion are integral and are produced by additive manufacturing, which simplifies production. The application likewise relates to a method of producing the strainer.
