A heat exchange system for a turbine engine is provided. The heat exchange system includes a cavity having an air intake, a heat exchanger arranged in the cavity and having a first circuit in which a first fluid can circulate, a movable flap mounted at the air intake and moving between two positions permitting or preventing, respectively, the circulation of air flow in the cavity, and a control device having a movable member configured to drive the movement of the movable flap. The control device can be arranged in the heat exchanger supply circuit and configured so as to permit or prevent the circulation of the first fluid to the heat exchanger and simultaneously move the movable flap between at least one of the two positions.

An aircraft turbomachine includes a lubricating circuit notably including a reservoir of lubricating fluid, a pump drawing lubricating fluid from the reservoir to inject it toward several components of the turbomachine, and an intake pipe connecting the reservoir to an intake orifice of the pump, the turbomachine further including a pneumatic starting circuit including a starting tube through which there circulates a flow of compressed air intended to supply a pneumatic starter of the turbomachine, wherein it includes a pneumatic line extending from the starting tube as far as the reservoir so as to supply the reservoir with compressed air so as to cause the lubricating fluid to circulate through the intake pipe towards the pump.

An aircraft turbine engine assembly, including a lubricating oil circuit and a fuel supply device, the assembly also including a passive bypass valve enabling the oil to bypass an exchanger, the valve including a valve body and a piston arranged to move in a sliding space defining a first actuating chamber supplied with oil from the oil circuit, as well as a second actuating chamber supplied with fuel from the device, the valve being configured so that when the differential pressure between the oil pressure in the first actuating chamber and the fuel pressure in the second actuating chamber drops below a predetermined value of differential pressure, the piston moves from a normal operating position to an exchanger bypass position.

An assembly for a fluid circuit of a turbine engineincludes a main branch, a fluid control valve, and a bypass branch which is arranged in parallel to the main branch. The fluid control valve includes a main outlet which is fluidly connected to the main branch and a bypass outlet which is fluidly connected to the bypass branch. The fluid control valve including a shutter, a spring for biasing the shutter, and control members for electrically controlling the shutter to a main open position or a bypass position. The spring for biasing the shutter is configured to bias the displacement of the shutter to the bypass position when a fluid pressure value is lower than a first threshold value.

An assembly for an aircraft turbine engine includes a fan drive reduction gear and a lubrication system including: a reduction gear housing; a lubricant tank; a lubricant supply circuit including a feed pump; and a lubricant recovery circuit including a pump for recovering lubricant from the reduction gear housing. The recovery circuit includes a lubricant distributor, including: a lubricant inlet communicating with a lubricant outlet of the housing; an air inlet; and a distributor outlet, the distributor being able to adopt a lubricant recovery configuration and a configuration for retaining the lubricant in the housing.
