    Abstract: A gas turbine engine has a compressor section, a combustor, and a turbine section. An associated fluid is to be cooled and an associated fluid is to be heated. A transcritical vapor cycle heats the fluid to be heated, and cools the fluid to be cooled. The transcritical vapor cycle includes a gas cooler in which the fluid to be heated is heated by a refrigerant in the transcritical vapor cycle. An evaporator heat exchanger at which the fluid to be cooled is cooled by the refrigerant in the transcritical vapor cycle. A compressor upstream of the gas cooler compresses the refrigerant to a pressure above a critical point for the refrigerant. An expansion device expands the refrigerant downstream of the gas cooler, with the evaporator heat exchanger being downstream of the expansion device, and such that the refrigerant passing through the gas cooler to heat the fluid to be heated is generally above the critical point.

    Abstract: An intercooled cooling system for a gas turbine engine is provided. The intercooled cooling system includes cooling stages in fluid communication with an air stream utilized for cooling. A first cooling stage is fluidly coupled to a bleed port of the gas turbine engine to receive and cool bleed air with the air stream to produce a cool bleed air. The intercooled cooling system includes a pump fluidly coupled to the first cooling stage to receive and increase a pressure of the cool bleed air to produce a pressurized cool bleed air. A second cooling stage is fluidly coupled to the pump to receive and cool the pressurized cool bleed air to produce an intercooled cooling air. The intercooled cooling system includes an air cycle machine in fluid communication to outputs of the cooling stages to selectively receive the cool bleed air or the intercooled cooling air.
