Abstract:
A probe cooling system for a gas turbine engine includes a probe housing and a bushing disposed between an end of the probe housing and a gas path, the bushing extending from the end of the probe housing to form a cavity. The system also includes a first plenum defined within the probe housing and configured to direct air from an internal cooling air supply towards the cavity. The system also includes a second plenum defined between the bushing and the probe housing and configured to direct air from the internal cooling air supply towards the cavity.
