Abstract
Systems and methods for conditioning a fluid using bleed air from a bypass duct of a turbofan engine are disclosed. The system comprises a heat exchanger configured to facilitate heat transfer between a flow of bleed air from the bypass duct of the turbofan engine and the fluid, and a fluid propeller configured to drive the bleed air through the heat exchanger. The fluid propeller is disposed downstream of the heat exchanger.
