ABSTRACT:
An oil supply system for pumping oil to the main shaft bearings seals, accessory gears and splines of a gas turbine engine is provided with a bypass duct controlled by a valve programmed to dump excessive oil flow at engine idle. The valve diverts oil flow from the bearings to prevent a build-up therein. A check valve is placed in the main supply line to the bearings and is designed to stop oil flow after engine shutdown.
