US Patent 10443498 Gas turbine engine cooling fluid metering system

A cooling fluid system for a gas turbine engine includes a fluid source. A turbine section includes first and second components. A fluid supply system has a primary pipe that is configured to provide a cooling supply fluid from the fluid source to a fluid fitting having a fluid junction. The fluid junction is in fluid communication with and is configured to supply a first cooling fluid to the first component. The fluid junction is in fluid communication with and is configured to supply a second cooling fluid to the second component. A flow meter is upstream from the fluid junction and is configured to receive the cooling supply fluid.
