Abstract

An example system includes an electrical machine electrically configured to generate electrical energy used by one or more components of a gas-turbine engine; an energy storage system; and a controller electrically connected to the energy storage system and configured to receive electrical energy from the energy storage system, wherein, in response to the gas-turbine engine being shut off, the controller is configured to cause the electrical machine to rotate a rotor of the gas-turbine engine using the energy received from the energy storage system.
