Abstract

An assembly for a gas turbine engine includes at least one rotational assembly, an engine static structure, a compressor, one or more compressed air loads, and a particulate separator assembly. The at least one rotational assembly includes a shaft, a bladed compressor rotor, and a bladed turbine rotor. The engine static structure includes an engine case assembly. The engine case assembly surrounds the at least one rotational assembly. The compressor includes the bladed compressor rotor. The compressor is configured to form a compressed air flow. The one or more compressed air loads are disposed within the engine case assembly. The particulate separator assembly includes a plurality of particulate separators. The plurality of particulate separators are disposed outside of the engine case assembly. The plurality of particulate separators are configured to separate particulate from the compressed air flow and direct the compressed air flow to the one or more compressed air loads.
