Thus, in its development, engineers determined that no other power should be bled off them for system hydraulics, and designed a space in its tail for a third, auxiliary gas turbine engine, or APU (as found in numerous other aircraft). To remove heat generated by the APU, an axial, vane type fan, driven off the APU gearbox, is usually provided to pump cooling air past the oil cooler and the compartment. But because of the high speeds and rotating parts, these fans are susceptible to mechanical failures. When they do occur, it requires that the aircraft be removed from operation. Further, these fans sometimes leak oil into the cooling flow which then covers the oil cooler fins resulting in reduced heat transfer and the possibility of an APU automatic shutdown because of excessive oil temperature.
