Abstract

A gas turbine engine includes a bypass duct, an inlet cowl, and a heat-exchanger assembly. The bypass duct is configured to direct air through a flow path to provide thrust to propel the gas turbine engine. The inlet cowl is located in the bypass duct and configured to collect a portion of the air flowing in the bypass duct. The heat-exchanger assembly is removably coupled with the inlet cowl and configured to receive the portion of the air from the inlet cowl.
