Non-intrusive measurement techniques (PIV, LDA, LDV, IR thermography) have been successfully applied to determine the aerothermal performance of a turbofan surface heat exchanger in a new reduced-scale facility, which reproduces the flow conditions of the actual bypass duct. This will facilitate the development and validation of this key thermal management technology for future aeroengines.
