"textContent": "System (300) and method for cleaning deposits from a component (102) of an assembled, on-wing gas turbine engine (100) are provided. Accordingly, the method includes operably coupling a delivery assembly (306) to an annular inlet of the core gas turbine engine. A portion of cleaning fluid is atomized with the delivery assembly to develop a cleaning mist (312) having a plurality of atomized droplets. The atomized droplets are suspended within any path of the core gas turbine engine from the annular inlet to an axial position downstream of a compressor (124) of the core gas turbine engine. A portion of the cleaning mist is impacted or precipitated onto the component so as to wet the component, and a portion of the deposits on the component is dissolved by the cleaning mist.",
