Abstract

A system for cooling and adjusting the temperature of apparatuses in the propulsion assembly of an aircraft, that includes first means for heat exchange between lubrication circuits of at least two of the aforementioned apparatuses and a heat-carrier fluid contained in a closed circuit, a second means for heat exchange between the heat-carrier fluid and at least one coolant, the first heat exchange means being arranged locally at each of the aforementioned apparatuses, the second heat exchange means being remote from the aforementioned first means, the closed circuit extending between at least two of the aforementioned apparatuses and the aforementioned second means.
