Abstract
A method of reducing rotor bow in a high pressure rotor of a gas turbine engine that has in axial flow a low pressure rotor and a high pressure rotor. The method involves storing bleed air from the gas turbine engine when the engine is running to provide stored pneumatic energy; and using that stored pneumatic energy after the engine has been shut-down to rotate the high pressure rotor at a speed and for a duration that reduces rotor bow. A gas turbine engine wherein rotor bow in the high pressure rotor after engine shut-down has been reduced by carrying out the aforesaid method is also disclosed.
