Abstract

See full text

A lubrication system for a turbine engine or other application includes a first or primary branch 12 and a second or secondary branch 14, a main pump 16, a lubricant distributor 18 for receiving lubricant from the main pump and distributing the lubricant to the branches, and a auxiliary pump 30 in the second branch downstream of the distributor. The system is operable in a normal mode of operation in which lubricant flows from a lubricant source into the primary and secondary branches 12, 14 and is also operable in a backup mode of operation in which lubricant backflows from the primary branch into the secondary branch.
