    Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to a gas turbine engine that includes a fan configured to generate a fanstream and a fanstream duct configured to receive the fanstream flowing therethrough. An engine electronic component is positioned in flow communication with the fanstream. A heating element is positioned in the fanstream upstream from the engine electronic component and is operative to heat at least a portion of the fanstream in flow communication with the engine electronic component. The position of the engine electronic component passively thermally conditions the engine electronic component and the heating element actively thermally conditions the engine electronic component.

    Abstract: A fan nozzle for an aircraft gas turbine engine is comprised of a core engine cowl that is disposed within a fan cowl so that an air flow area is defined therebetween. The core engine cowl and fan cowl are disposed around a horizontal central plane. The fan cowl has a substantially circular shape and is formed of an upper substantially semi-circular portion having a first radius and a lower substantially semi-circular portion having a second radius. The core engine cowl has a substantially circular shape and is formed of an upper substantially semi-circular portion having a third radius and a lower substantially semi-circular portion having a third radius. The upper substantially semi-circular portion of the core engine cowl includes a left arcuate member and a right arcuate member. The second radius is less than the first radius and the third radius is less than the fourth radius.
