GAS TURBINE ENGINE WITH A LUBRICATION SYSTEM AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING IT

A gas turbine engine with a lubrication system (104; 204) includes a ball bearing assembly (108, 110) and a rotor (106) circumscribing a rotational axis and journaled within the ball bearing assembly (108, 110). The gas turbine engine also includes a lubrication system (104;204) located radially outward from a rotational axis and radially outward and adjacent to the ball bearing assembly (108, 110), which includes a lubrication channel (124; 224) having an inlet (120) and an outlet (126; 226) and a dispersion cone (128; 228) adjacent to the outlet (126; 226) of the lubrication channel (124; 224).
