Abstract
A disclosed lubrication system for a gas turbine engine includes a primary passage defining a flow path for lubricant to a gas turbine engine and a bypass passage defining a flow path for lubricant around the gas turbine engine. The lubrication system further includes a primary lubrication pump including a reduced total flow capacity of lubricant with a reduced bypass lubricant flow relative to the total overall flow capacity.
