Abstract

A cooling flow circuit is provided and includes a main line having first and second sections ported to piston extend and return sides of the gas turbine engine actuator, respectively, an orifice disposed along the main line between the first and second sections, a bypass line and a bypass valve. The bypass line is fluidly coupled to the first and second sections at opposite ends thereof, respectively. The bypass valve is disposed along the bypass line between the opposite ends thereof. The bypass valve has a variable flow area which is responsive to a pressure differential between the first and second sections.
