Abstract
A gas turbine engine includes a bypass duct including an outer wall, a flow wall arranged within the bypass duct so as to bifurcate a flow path of the bypass duct into radially outer and inner flow paths, and a heat exchanger. The outer wall includes a segmented wall portion that is removable from the outer wall. The heat exchanger is arranged within the radially outer flow path and is coupled to the segmented wall portion such that the heat exchanger is configured to be removed from the bypass duct via removal of the segmented wall portion from the outer wall.
