Abstract
An air-oil separation system for a gas turbine engine system comprises a housing that extends circumferentially around an axis to define an interior chamber of the housing and a separation unit located in the chamber. The housing is formed to include an inlet configured to receive a mixture of air and oil, an oil outlet configured to conduct oil to exit the housing, and an air outlet configured to conduct air to exit the housing. The air-oil separation unit separates air from the oil.
