Abstract
A cooling fluid system for a gas turbine engine includes a structure that provides a fluid passageway. The structure has a wall with an aperture that is in fluid communication with the fluid passageway. The aperture is configured to provide a fluid in a flow direction. Fingers are arranged in the fluid passageway facing into flow direction. The fluid passageway includes a cooling cavity immediately downstream from the fingers and it is configured to receive fluid having passed over or through the fingers.
