Title: Clearance design process and strategy with cca-acc optimization for egt and performance improvement

Description:
FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE 
     This disclosure relates generally to a gas turbine engine, and, more particularly, to a clearance design process and strategy with cooled cooling air (CCA) and active clearance control (ACC) optimization for exhaust gas temperature (EGT) and performance improvement. 
     BACKGROUND 
     A gas turbine engine generally includes, in serial flow order, an inlet section, a compressor section, a combustion section, a turbine section, and an exhaust section. In operation, air enters the inlet section and flows to the compressor section where one or more axial compressors progressively compress the air until it reaches the combustion section. Fuel mixes with the compressed air and burns within the combustion section, thereby creating combustion gases. The combustion gases flow from the combustion section through a hot gas path defined within the turbine section and then exit the turbine section via the exhaust section. 
     In general, it is desirable for a gas turbine engine to maintain clearance between the tip of a blade in the gas turbine engine and the stationary parts of the gas turbine engine (e.g., the gas turbine engine casing, stator, etc.). During operation, the gas turbine engine is exposed to thermal (e.g., hot and cold air pumped into the gas turbine engine, etc.) and mechanical loads (e.g., centrifugal force on the blades on the gas turbine engine, etc.), which can expand and contract the gas turbine engine casing and rotor. The expansion and contraction of the gas turbine engine casing can change the clearance between the blade tip and the stationary parts of the gas turbine engine. There is a continuing need to control clearance between the blade tip and the engine casing that fluctuates during normal operation for a gas turbine engine to achieve tighter clearance for the better performance and avoid damage to the gas turbine engine (e.g., wear, breakage, etc.). 
     BRIEF SUMMARY

     The figures are not to scale. Instead, the thickness of the layers or regions may be enlarged in the drawings. Although the figures show layers and regions with clean lines and boundaries, some or all of these lines and/or boundaries may be idealized. In reality, the boundaries and/or lines may be unobservable, blended, and/or irregular. In general, the same reference numbers will be used throughout the drawing(s) and accompanying written description to refer to the same or like parts. As used herein, unless otherwise stated, the term “above” describes the relationship of two parts relative to Earth. A first part is above a second part, if the second part has at least one part between Earth and the first part. Likewise, as used herein, a first part is “below” a second part when the first part is closer to the Earth than the second part. As noted above, a first part can be above or below a second part with one or more of: other parts therebetween, without other parts therebetween, with the first and second parts touching, or without the first and second parts being in direct contact with one another. As used in this patent, stating that any part (e.g., a layer, film, area, region, or plate) is in any way on (e.g., positioned on, located on, disposed on, or formed on, etc.) another part, indicates that the referenced part is either in contact with the other part, or that the referenced part is above the other part with one or more intermediate part(s) located therebetween. As used herein, connection references (e.g., attached, coupled, connected, and joined) may include intermediate members between the elements referenced by the connection reference and/or relative movement between those elements unless otherwise indicated. As such, connection references do not necessarily infer that two elements are directly connected and/or in fixed relation to each other. As used herein, stating that any part is in “contact” with another part is defined to mean that there is no intermediate part between the two parts. 
     Unless specifically stated otherwise, descriptors such as “first,” “second,” “third,” etc., are used herein without imputing or otherwise indicating any meaning of priority, physical order, arrangement in a list, and/or ordering in any way, but are merely used as labels and/or arbitrary names to distinguish elements for ease of understanding the disclosed examples. In some examples, the descriptor “first” may be used to refer to an element in the detailed description, while the same element may be referred to in a claim with a different descriptor such as “second” or “third.” In such instances, it should be understood that such descriptors are used merely for identifying those elements distinctly that might, for example, otherwise share a same name. As used herein, “approximately” and “about” refer to dimensions that may not be exact due to manufacturing tolerances and/or other real world imperfections. 
     DETAILED DESCRIPTION 
     In the following detailed description, reference is made to the accompanying drawings that form a part hereof, and in which is shown by way of illustration specific examples that may be practiced. These examples are described in sufficient detail to enable one skilled in the art to practice the subject matter, and it is to be understood that other examples may be utilized. The following detailed description is therefore, provided to describe example implementations and not to be taken limiting on the scope of the subject matter described in this disclosure. Certain features from different aspects of the following description may be combined to form yet new aspects of the subject matter discussed below. 
     When introducing elements of various embodiments of the present disclosure, the articles “a,” “an,” “the,” and “said” are intended to mean that there are one or more of the elements. The terms “first,” “second,” and the like, do not denote any order, quantity, or importance, but rather are used to distinguish one element from another. The terms “comprising,” “including,” and “having” are intended to be inclusive and mean that there may be additional elements other than the listed elements. As the terms “connected to,” “coupled to,” etc. are used herein, one object (e.g., a material, element, structure, member, etc.) can be connected to or coupled to another object regardless of whether the one object is directly connected or coupled to the other object or whether there are one or more intervening objects between the one object and the other object. 
     As used herein, the terms “system,” “unit,” “module,” “engine,” etc., may include a hardware and/or software system that operates to perform one or more functions. For example, a module, unit, or system may include a computer processor, controller, and/or other logic-based device that performs operations based on instructions stored on a tangible and non-transitory computer readable storage medium, such as a computer memory. Alternatively, a module, unit, engine, or system may include a hard-wired device that performs operations based on hard-wired logic of the device. Various modules, units, engines, and/or systems shown in the attached figures may represent the hardware that operates based on software or hardwired instructions, the software that directs hardware to perform the operations, or a combination thereof. 
     The terms “upstream” and “downstream” refer to the relative direction with respect to fluid flow in a fluid pathway. For example, “upstream” refers to the direction from which the fluid flows, and “downstream” refers to the direction to which the fluid flows. As used herein, “vertical” refers to the direction perpendicular to the ground. As used herein, “horizontal” refers to the direction parallel to the centerline of the gas turbine engine  100 . As used herein, “lateral” refers to the direction perpendicular to the axial and vertical directions (e.g., into and out of the plane of  FIGS. 1, 2 , etc.). 
     In some examples used herein, the term “substantially” is used to describe a relationship between two parts that is within three degrees of the stated relationship (e.g., a substantially colinear relationship is within three degrees of being linear, a substantially perpendicular relationship is within three degrees of being perpendicular, a substantially parallel relationship is within three degrees of being parallel, etc.). 
     A turbine engine, also called a combustion turbine or a gas turbine, is a type of internal combustion engine. Turbine engines are commonly utilized in aircraft and power-generation applications. As used herein, the terms “asset,” “aircraft turbine engine,” “gas turbine,” “land-based turbine engine,” and “turbine engine” are used interchangeably. A basic operation of the turbine engine includes an intake of fresh atmospheric air flow through the front of the turbine engine with a fan. In some examples, the air flow travels through an intermediate-pressure compressor or a booster compressor located between the fan and a high-pressure compressor. A turbine engine also includes a turbine with an intricate array of alternating rotating and stationary airfoil-section blades. As the hot combustion gas passes through the turbine, the hot combustion gas expands, causing the rotating blades to spin. 
     The components of the turbine engine (e.g., the fan, the booster compressor, the high-pressure compressor, the high-pressure turbine, the low-pressure turbine, etc.) can degrade over time due to demanding operating conditions such as extreme temperature and vibration. During operation, the turbine engine components are exposed to thermal (e.g., hot and cold air pumped into the turbine engine, etc.) and mechanical loads (e.g., centrifugal force on the blades on the turbine engine, etc.), which can expand and contract the turbine engine casing and rotor and/or compressor casing and rotor along with other components of the turbine engine and/or its compressor. The expansion and contraction of the turbine engine casing and/or compressor casing can change the clearance between the blades&#39; tips and the stationary components of the turbine engine. In some examples, if the clearance between the blades&#39; tips and the stationary components is not controlled, then the blades&#39; tips and stationary components can collide during operation and lead to further degradation of the components of the turbine engine. 
     The Active Clearance Control (ACC) system optimizes or otherwise improves blade tip clearance for engine performance improvement without unexpected harmful rub events during flight and ground operations. A conventional ACC system includes using cooling air from a fan or compressor to control the clearance between the blade tip and an engine component that has shrunk (e.g., the stator, the case, etc.). The conventional ACC system is controlled by a controller (e.g., a full authority digital engine (or electronics) control (FADEC)) to modulate the clearance in one direction (e.g., engine component shrinkage). The conventional ACC system provides cooling air from a fan or compressor to the surface of stator of a turbine and/or compressor (e.g., the high-pressure compressor, the high-pressure turbine, the low-pressure turbine, the low-pressure compressor, etc.) for case deflection and clearance control. However, the conventional ACC system does not provide sufficient clearance control in deteriorated engine conditions because the clearance is too large to be able to control the exhaust gas temperature (EGT) of the turbine engine (e.g., a deteriorated engine condition with blade tip loss (due to oxidation) opens a clearance beyond the range of ACC capability to adjust). 
     Similarly, a Passive Clearance Control (PCC) system modulates clearance for case deflection by material selection and design optimization of the stator of a turbine and/or compressor. However, a PCC system is not controlled by a controller (e.g., a FADEC). The conventional PCC system does not work appropriately for operational and/or performance design points (e.g., take-off, cruise, climb, etc.) since it is not modulated by a controller to determine when clearance control needs to be taken as an ACC system does. 
     A Cooled Cooling Air (CCA) system provides additional blade tip clearance to achieve performance improvement with better capability of clearance control for altitude cruise point through the flight mission and reduce/prevent harmful rub events during flight and ground operations for a turbine engine. A conventional CCA system applies cooled cooling air from a fan or a compressor to the rotating parts of the turbine engine (e.g., blades, disks, seals, etc.) to change the deflection and blade tip clearance. A conventional CCA provides appropriate clearance control by controlling rotor deflection to control EGT overshoot. 
     Examples disclosed herein integrate an CCA-ACC system to control blade clearance in a turbine engine. Examples disclosed herein include a new clearance design strategy for controlling blade clearance, regulating EGT, and improving time-on-wing for a turbine engine compared to an ACC system and for a compressor compared to a PCC system with a separated CCA application. In examples disclosed herein, the CCA and ACC systems work together to control clearance at the case of a turbine and/or compressor and at the rotating parts within the turbine and/or compressor. The integration of the CCA system with the ACC system increases the range of clearance movement and improves the capability of EGT control in the case of deteriorated blades/shrouds of the turbine and/or compressor. Examples disclosed herein integrate the CCA and ACC systems using a heat exchanger and/or a mixer to provide an exchange of cooling air between the systems. Introducing the heat exchanger or mixer between the CCA and ACC systems provides additional, more effective clearance control (e.g., additional power, airflow, cooling temperature adjustment, clearance precision, etc.), which can improve control of EGT overshoot. In examples disclosed herein, the integration of the CCA system also provides appropriate clearance control for the ACC system by achieving tighter clearance and improving specific fuel consumption (SFC) for the turbine engine at cruise and other points in the flight mission. Furthermore, the addition of the CCA system into the ACC system increases performance of cooling down parts in the hot section of the turbine engine (e.g., turbine, compressor, rotating parts, etc.) more effectively than current airfoil cooling designs. Examples disclosed herein provide increased hardware endurance capability and life improvement for the components of the turbine engine due to the colder air of the CCA system. 
     Certain examples provide an engine controller, referred to as a full authority digital engine (or electronics) control (FADEC). The FADEC includes a digital computer, referred to as an electronic engine controller (EEC) or engine control unit (ECU), and related accessories that control aspects of aircraft engine performance. The FADEC can be used with a variety of engines such as piston engines, jet engines, other aircraft engines, etc. In certain examples, the EEC/ECU is provided separate from the FADEC, allowing manual override or intervention by a pilot and/or other operator. 
     In examples disclosed herein, the engine controller receives values for a plurality of input variables relating to flight condition (e.g., air density, throttle lever position, engine temperatures, engine pressures, etc.). The engine controller computes engine operating parameters such as fuel flow, stator vane position, air bleed valve position, etc., using the flight condition data. The engine operating parameters can be used by the engine controller to control operation of the CCA-ACC system to modulate blade tip clearance in the turbine engine. 
     Reference now will be made in detail to embodiments of the invention, one or more examples of which are illustrated in the drawings. Each example is provided by way of explanation of the invention, not limitation of the invention. In fact, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made in the present invention without departing from the scope or spirit of the invention. For instance, features illustrated or described as part of one embodiment can be used with another embodiment to yield a still further embodiment. Thus, it is intended that the present invention covers such modifications and variations as come within the scope of the appended claims and their equivalents. 
       FIG. 1  is a schematic cross-sectional view of a prior art turbofan-type gas turbine engine  100  (“turbofan  100 ”). As shown in  FIG. 1 , the turbofan  100  defines a longitudinal or axial centerline axis  102  extending there through for reference. In general, the turbofan  100  includes a core turbine or gas turbine engine  104  disposed downstream from a fan section  106 . 
     The core turbine  104  includes a substantially tubular outer casing  108  that defines an annular inlet  110 . The outer casing  108  can be formed from a single casing or multiple casings. The outer casing  108  encloses, in serial flow relationship, a compressor section having a booster or low pressure compressor  112  (“LP compressor  112 ”) and a high pressure compressor  114  (“HP compressor  114 ”), a combustion section  116 , a turbine section having a high pressure turbine  118  (“HP turbine  118 ”) and a low pressure turbine  120  (“LP turbine  120 ”), and an exhaust section  122 . A high pressure shaft or spool  124  (“HP shaft  124 ”) drivingly couples the HP turbine  118  and the HP compressor  114 . A low pressure shaft or spool  126  (“LP shaft  126 ”) drivingly couples the LP turbine  120  and the LP compressor  112 . The LP shaft  126  may also couple to a fan spool or shaft  128  of the fan section  106 . In some examples, the LP shaft  126  may couple directly to the fan shaft  128  (i.e., a direct-drive configuration). In alternative configurations, the LP shaft  126  may couple to the fan shaft  128  via a reduction gear  130  (i.e., an indirect-drive or geared-drive configuration). 
     As shown in  FIG. 1 , the fan section  106  includes a plurality of fan blades  132  coupled to and extending radially outwardly from the fan shaft  128 . An annular fan casing or nacelle  134  circumferentially encloses the fan section  106  and/or at least a portion of the core turbine  104 . The nacelle  134  is supported relative to the core turbine  104  by a plurality of circumferentially-spaced apart outlet guide vanes  136 . Furthermore, a downstream section  138  of the nacelle  134  can enclose an outer portion of the core turbine  104  to define a bypass airflow passage  140  therebetween. 
     As illustrated in  FIG. 1 , air  142  enters an inlet portion  144  of the turbofan  100  during operation thereof. A first portion  146  of the air  142  flows into the bypass flow passage  140 , while a second portion  148  of the air  142  flows into the inlet  110  of the LP compressor  112 . One or more sequential stages of LP compressor stator vanes  150  and LP compressor rotor blades  152  coupled to the LP shaft  126  progressively compress the second portion  148  of the air  142  flowing through the LP compressor  112  en route to the HP compressor  114 . Next, one or more sequential stages of HP compressor stator vanes  154  and HP compressor rotor blades  156  coupled to the HP shaft  124  further compress the second portion  148  of the air  142  flowing through the HP compressor  114 . This provides compressed air  158  to the combustion section  116  where it mixes with fuel and burns to provide combustion gases  160 . 
     The combustion gases  160  flow through the HP turbine  118  in which one or more sequential stages of HP turbine stator vanes  162  and HP turbine rotor blades  164  coupled to the HP shaft  124  extract a first portion of kinetic and/or thermal energy from the combustion gases  160 . This energy extraction supports operation of the HP compressor  114 . The combustion gases  160  then flow through the LP turbine  120  where one or more sequential stages of LP turbine stator vanes  166  and LP turbine rotor blades  168  coupled to the LP shaft  126  extract a second portion of thermal and/or kinetic energy therefrom. This energy extraction causes the LP shaft  126  to rotate, thereby supporting operation of the LP compressor  112  and/or rotation of the fan shaft  128 . The combustion gases  160  then exit the core turbine  104  through the exhaust section  122  thereof. 
     Along with the turbofan  100 , the core turbine  104  serves a similar purpose and sees a similar environment in land-based gas turbines, turbojet engines in which the ratio of the first portion  146  of the air  142  to the second portion  148  of the air  142  is less than that of a turbofan, and unducted fan engines in which the fan section  106  is devoid of the nacelle  134 . In each of the turbofan, turbojet, and unducted engines, a speed reduction device (e.g., the reduction gearbox  130 ) may be included between any shafts and spools. For example, the reduction gearbox  130  may be disposed between the LP shaft  126  and the fan shaft  128  of the fan section  106 . 
       FIGS. 2A, 2B  are block diagrams of example prior active clearance control (ACC) and cooled cooling air (CCA) systems. The prior ACC and CCA system  200  of  FIG. 2A  includes a fan or compressor  205 , a case cooling/deflection  210 , an undercowl  215 , and a valve  220  for the ACC system, and a compressor  225 , a heat exchanger  230 , a rotor parts cooling  235 , and a valve  240  for the CCA system. In the illustrated example of  FIG. 2A , the ACC and CCA systems and the respective components are separated (e.g., not integrated to work together). In the ACC system of the prior system  200 , the fan or compressor  205  obtains external jet air for cooling. The fan or compressor  205  provides the external jet air to the case cooling/deflection  210  through the valve  220 . In some examples, the valve  220  position is controlled to allow for the external jet air to flow from the fan or compressor  205  to the case cooling/deflection  210 . In some examples, the valve  220  is controlled by a controller (e.g., a full-authority digital engine control (FADEC) unit, an engine control unit (ECU), an electronic engine control (EEC) unit, etc.), where the controller controls the valve  220  position to control the clearance. For example, the controller controls the valve  220  position between 0% (fully closed) and 100% (fully open) (e.g., the valve  220  position can be at 40% open, 80% open, etc.). The case cooling/deflection  210  applies the external jet air from the fan or compressor  205  to the case of the turbine (e.g., the HP turbine  118  or the LP turbine  120  of  FIG. 1 ) and/or compressor (e.g., the LP compressor  112  or the high HP compressor  114  of  FIG. 1 ). The case cooling/deflection  210  applies the external jet air to the case to adjust the clearance between the case of the turbine and/or compressor and the internal parts (e.g., rotor parts). The case cooling/deflection  210  directs the external jet air from the fan or compressor  205  to the undercowl  215  after the case cooling/deflection  210  uses the external jet air for case cooling and case deflection. The case cooling/deflection  210  directs the used external jet air to the undercowl  215  for other thermal environments to be cooled. In some examples, the undercowl  215  is a covering on the turbine and/or compressor. The case cooling/deflection  210  direct the external jet air to the undercowl  215  to discard the used external jet air or to apply the cooling from the external jet air to other surfaces of thermal environments of the turbine and/or compressor to decrease the clearance for the turbine engine (e.g., gas turbine engine  100  of  FIG. 1 ). 
     In the illustrated example of  FIG. 2A , the CCA system of the prior system  200  includes the compressor  225  to obtain cooled cooling air for cooling. The compressor  225  provides the cooled cooling air to the heat exchanger  230 . The heat exchanger  230  adjusts the temperature of the cooled cooling air. The heat exchanger  230  provides the cooled cooling air to the rotor parts cooling  235  through the valve  240 . In some examples, the valve  240  position is controlled to allow for the cooled cooling air to flow from the heat exchanger  230  to the rotor parts cooling  235 . In some examples, the valve  240  is controlled by a controller (e.g., a full-authority digital engine control (FADEC) unit, an engine control unit (ECU), an electronic engine control (EEC) unit, etc.), where the controller controls the valve  240  position to control the clearance. For example, the controller controls the valve  240  position between 0% (fully closed) and 100% (fully open) (e.g., the valve  240  position can be at 40% open, 80% open, etc.). Alternatively, the controller controls the valve  240  position to be either 0% (fully closed) or 100% (fully open) for a simple and cost-effective design. The rotor parts cooling  235  applies the cooled cooling air from the heat exchanger  230  to the rotor parts of the turbine (e.g., the HP turbine  118  or the LP turbine  120  of  FIG. 1 ) and/or compressor (e.g., the LP compressor  112  or the high HP compressor  114  of  FIG. 1 ). The rotor parts cooling  235  applies the cooled cooling air to the rotor parts (e.g., blades, disks, etc.) inside the turbine and/or compressor to adjust the deflection of the rotor parts and control the clearance between the rotor parts and the case of the turbine and/or compressor. 
     The prior ACC and CCA system  250  of  FIG. 2B  includes first part  255  in place of the fan or compressor  205 , the case cooling/deflection  210 , a second part  260  in place of the undercowl  215 , and the valve  220  for the ACC system, and the compressor  225 , the heat exchanger  230 , the rotor parts cooling  235 , and the valve  240  for the CCA system. In the illustrated example of  FIG. 2B , the ACC and CCA systems and the respective components are separated (e.g., not integrated to work together). The prior system  250  is similar to the prior system  200  of  FIG. 2A , except the ACC system of prior system  250  includes the first part  255  and the second part  260 . In some examples, the prior system  250  does not define the first part  255  and second part  260  of the ACC system because the components in those places can be replaced without impacting the prior system  250 . The first part  255  could be a fan or a compressor similar to the fan or compressor  205  of prior system  200 , however, other components may alternatively be included in the first part  255 . Similarly, the second part  260  could be an undercowl similar to the undercowl  215  of the prior system  200 , however, other components may alternatively be included in the second part  260 . The prior systems  200  and  250  of  FIGS. 2A and 2B  respectively operate similarly in that the ACC and CCA systems are separate systems that provide clearance control in different places of the turbine and/or compressor (e.g., the ACC system providing clearance control on the surface of the case and the CCA system providing separate clearance control at the rotor parts). 
       FIG. 3  is a block diagram of an example controller  310  for an example CCA-ACC system in accordance with the teachings disclosed herein. In the example environment  300  of the illustrated example of  FIG. 3 , the controller  310  can be a full-authority digital engine control (FADEC) unit, an engine control unit (ECU), an electronic engine control (EEC) unit, etc., or any other type of data acquisition and/or control computing device, processor platform (e.g., processor-based computing platform), etc. The controller  310  communicates with the engine sensor(s)  315  and the clearance control module  320 . The controller  310  includes a sensor(s) processor  325 , a flow rate controller  330 , and a temperature controller  335 . 
     In the illustrated example of  FIG. 3 , the controller  310  receives values for a plurality of input variables relating to flight condition (e.g., air density, throttle lever position, engine temperatures, engine pressures, etc.). The controller  310  receives the flight condition data from the engine sensor(s)  315 . The engine sensor(s)  315  can be mounted on the gas turbine engine  100  and/or positioned elsewhere in the aircraft (e.g., on wing, in cockpit, in main cabin, in engine compartment, in cargo, etc.). The communication between the controller  310  and the engine sensor(s)  315  can be one-way communication and/or two-way communication, for example. The controller  310  computes engine operating parameters such as fuel flow, stator vane position, air bleed valve position, etc., using the flight condition data. 
     In the illustrated example of  FIG. 3 , the sensor(s) processor  325  obtains the sensor data from the example engine sensor(s)  315 . The sensor data includes the flight condition data obtained from the gas turbine engine  100 . The sensor(s) processor  325  monitors engine conditions based on the sensor data from the engine sensor(s)  315 . For example, the sensor(s) processor  325  can calculate and monitor the fuel flow, stator vane position, air bleed valve position, direct clearance measurements, indirect clearance measurements, etc. In some examples, the sensor(s) processor  325  compares the engine conditions to known model estimates for those conditions to monitor the engine conditions for any changes. In some examples, the sensor(s) processor  325  determines if the clearance between the case and the rotating parts of the gas turbine engine  100  is decreasing and/or if there is exhaust gas temperature overshoot based on the engine conditions determined from the obtained flight condition data. In the illustrated example of  FIG. 3 , the flow rate controller  330  transmits flow rate control signals to different valves in the CCA-ACC system (e.g., the CCA-ACC system  400  of  FIG. 4  and/or the CCA-ACC system  500  of  FIG. 5  described in further detail below). In some examples, the flow rate control signals from the flow rate controller  330  adjust the airflow rate through valves in the CCA-ACC system based on the results from sensor(s) processor  325 . In the illustrated example of  FIG. 3 , the temperature controller  335  transmits a temperature control signal to a heat exchanger and/or mixer in the CCA-ACC system (e.g., the CCA-ACC system  400  of  FIG. 4  and/or the CCA-ACC system  500  of  FIG. 5  described in further detail below). In some examples, the temperature control signal from the temperature controller  335  adjusts the temperature of the air in the CCA-ACC system based on the results from sensor(s) processor  325 . 
       FIG. 4  is a block diagram of an example CCA-ACC system  400  in accordance with teachings disclosed herein. The CCA-ACC system  400  includes the controller  310  and the clearance control module  320  of  FIG. 3 . The clearance control module  320  of  FIG. 4  includes an integrated ACC and CCA system. The clearance control module  320  includes an ACC system  405  and a CCA system  410 . The ACC system  405  includes a fan or compressor  415 , a HPT case cooler/deflector  420  (e.g., the HP turbine  118  case), an undercowl  425 , and a low pressure turbine (LPT) case cooler/deflector  430 . CCA system  410  includes a compressor  435 , a heat exchanger  440 , and rotating parts cooler and clearance control  445 . The clearance control module  320  includes valves  450 ,  455 ,  460 , and  465  to integrate the components of the ACC system  405  and the CCA system  410 . In the illustrated example of  FIG. 4 , the CCA-ACC system  400  is one element in a series of elements for the clearance control in the gas turbine engine  100  of  FIG. 1 . 
     In the illustrated example of  FIG. 4 , the ACC system  405  includes the fan or compressor  415  to obtain external jet air for cooling. In some examples, the external jet air from the fan or compressor  415  is referred to as active clearance control air because the air is the external jet air obtained by the ACC system  405  of  FIG. 4 . The fan or compressor  415  provides the external jet air to the HPT case cooler/deflector  420  (e.g., the HP turbine  118  case) through the valve  450 . In some examples, the fan or compressor  415  and the HPT case cooler/deflector  420  are connected through the valve  450 . In some examples, the valve  450  opens and closes to allow for the external jet air to flow from the fan or compressor  415  to the HPT case cooler/deflector  420 . The valve  450  is controlled by the controller  310 , where the controller  310  opens and closes the valve  450  for different positions to control the airflow of the external jet air. The HPT case cooler/deflector  420  receives the external jet air from the fan or compressor  415  and obtains the external jet air for cooling the case of the turbine (e.g., the HP turbine  118  or the LP turbine  120  of  FIG. 1 ) and/or compressor (e.g., the LP compressor  112  or the high HP compressor  114  of  FIG. 1 ). The HPT case cooler/deflector  420  directs the external jet air to the undercowl  425  and the low pressure turbine (LPT) case cooler/deflector  430 . 
     In some examples, the undercowl  425  is a covering on the turbine and/or compressor. The HPT case cooler/deflector  420  directs the external jet air to the undercowl  425  to apply the cooling from the external jet air to the surfaces of the cases of the turbine and/or compressor to cool the case and decrease the clearance for the turbine engine (e.g., gas turbine engine  100  of  FIG. 1 ). In some examples, the LPT case cooler/deflector  430  directly applies the cooling from the external jet air to the surface of the LPT case (e.g., the case of the LP turbine  120  of  FIG. 1 ). The HPT case cooler/deflector  420  is connected to the LPT case cooler/deflector  430  through the valve  465 . The HPT case cooler/deflector  420  directs the external jet air to the LPT case cooler/deflector  430  through the valve  465 . 
     In some examples, the valve  465  opens and closes to allow for the external jet air to flow from the HPT case cooler/deflector  420  directly to the LPT case cooler/deflector  430 . The valve  465  is controlled by the controller  310 , where the controller  310  opens and closes the valve  465  to control the airflow of the external jet air directly to the LPT case cooler/deflector  430 . In the illustrated example of  FIG. 4 , the HPT case cooler/deflector  420  can direct airflow to both the undercowl  425  and the LPT case cooler/deflector  430 , or the HPT case cooler/deflector  420  can increase and decrease airflow to the LPT case cooler/deflector  430  directly with the valve  465  to better control clearance when the clearance is decreasing or when the engine detects EGT overshoot. 
     In the illustrated example of  FIG. 4 , the CCA system  410  includes the compressor  435  to obtain the cooled cooling air. The compressor  435  provides the cooled cooling air to the heat exchanger  440 . The heat exchanger  440  adjusts the temperature of the cooled cooling air. In some examples, the heat exchanger  440  adjusts the temperature of the cooled cooling air based on a temperature control signal from the controller  310 . In some examples, the heat exchanger  440  is connected to the rotating parts cooler and clearance control  445  (e.g., the aft stages of HP compressor for CCA) via the valve  460 . The heat exchanger  440  provides the cooled cooling air to the rotating parts cooler and clearance control  445  through the valve  460 . In some examples, the valve  460  opens and closes to allow for the cooled cooling air to flow from the heat exchanger  440  to the rotating parts cooler and clearance control  445 . In some examples, the valve  460  is controlled by the controller  310 , and the controller  310  opens and closes the valve  460  to control the clearance through changing the flow rate of the cooled cooling air through the valve  460 . 
     The rotating parts cooler and clearance control  445  applies the cooled cooling air from the heat exchanger  440  to the rotating parts of the turbine (e.g., the HP turbine  118  or the LP turbine  120  of  FIG. 1 ) and/or compressor (e.g., the LP compressor  112  or the high HP compressor  114  of  FIG. 1 ). The rotating parts cooler and clearance control  445  applies the cooled cooling air to the rotating parts (e.g., blades, disks, etc.) inside the turbine and/or compressor to adjust the deflection of the rotating parts and control the clearance between the rotating parts and the case of the turbine and/or compressor. 
     In the illustrated example of  FIG. 4 , the ACC system  405  and CCA system  410  are integrated. The HPT case cooler/deflector  420  of the ACC system  405  and the heat exchanger  440  of the CCA system  410  are connected via the valve  455 . In the illustrated example of  FIG. 4 , the ACC system  405  and the CCA system  410  obtain air from separate sources (e.g., the fan or compressor  415  and the compressor  435  respectively). The controller  310  of  FIG. 4  controls the mixing of the air between the ACC system  405  and CCA system  410  through the valve  455 . The controller  310  opens the valve  455  and adjust the flow rate through the valve  455  using a flow rate control signal to allow the heat exchanger  440  to adjust the temperature of the cooled cooling air in the HPT case cooler/deflector  420  of the ACC system  405 . The heat exchanger  440  controls the temperature of the air for both the ACC system  405  and CCA system  410  of the clearance control module  320  when the controller  310  has the valve  455  open. In some examples, the HPT case cooler/deflector  420  provides cooled cooling air controlled by the heat exchanger  440  to the undercowl  425  and/or reuses the cooled cooling air for the LPT case cooler/deflector  430 . In some examples, the heat exchanger  440  directs the cooled cooling air directly to the LPT case cooler/deflector  430 . The valves  455 ,  460  allow the clearance control module  320  to achieve tight clearance for the gas turbine engine  100  by integrating the ACC system  405  and CCA system  410 . In the case of EGT overshoot, the controller  310  can increase the flow rate of the valve  455  to control the temperature of the air in the HPT case cooler/deflector  420  to provide the necessary clearance control from the CCA system  410  to the ACC system  405 . In some examples, the ACC system  405  and CCA system  410  are implemented in a turbine (e.g., the HP turbine  118  and/or the LP turbine  120  of  FIG. 1 .). However, in some examples, a compressor (e.g., the LP compressor  112  and/or the HP compressor  114  of  FIG. 1 ) does not include an ACC system (e.g., the ACC system  405 ). Instead, the compressor includes a PCC system to control clearance, rather than the ACC system, where the PCC system is not controlled by the controller  310 . In such examples, the CCA system  410  is implemented with a PCC system in the compressor (e.g., the LP compressor  112  and/or the HP compressor  114  of  FIG. 1 ). 
       FIG. 5  is a block diagram of an example CCA-ACC system  500  in accordance with teachings disclosed herein. The CCA-ACC system  500  includes the controller  310  and the clearance control module  320  of  FIG. 3 . The clearance control module  320  of  FIG. 5  includes an integrated ACC and CCA system  500 . The clearance control module  320  includes an ACC system  505  and a CCA system  510 . The ACC system  505  includes a fan or compressor  515 , a mixer  525 , a HPT case cooler/deflector  530  (e.g., the HP turbine  118  case), an undercowl  535 , and a low pressure turbine (LPT) case cooler/deflector  540 . The CCA system  510  includes a compressor  520 , the mixer  525 , and rotating parts cooler and clearance control  545 . The clearance control module  320  includes valves  550 ,  555 , and  560  to integrate the components of the ACC system  505  and the CCA system  510 . In the illustrated example of  FIG. 5 , the CCA-ACC system  500  is one element in a series of elements for the clearance control in the gas turbine engine  100  of  FIG. 1 . 
     In the illustrated example of  FIG. 5 , the ACC system  505  includes the fan or compressor  515  to obtain external jet air for cooling. In some examples, the external jet air from the fan or compressor  515  is referred to as active clearance control air because the air is the external jet air obtained by the ACC system  505  of  FIG. 5 . In the illustrated example, the CCA system  510  includes the compressor  520  to obtain cooled cooling air. The fan or compressor  515  of the ACC system  505  and the compressor  520  of the CCA system  510  provide the respective external jet air and cooled cooling air to the mixer  525 . The ACC system  505  and the CCA system  510  of the clearance control module  320  share the mixer  525  for generating cooling air for clearance control. The mixer  525  includes an air flow mixer and/or a thermal mixer (e.g., a heat exchanger). The mixer  525  combines the external jet air from the fan or compressor  515  and the cooled cooling air from the compressor  520  to form mixed air. In certain examples, the mixer  525  combines and/or adjusts the temperature of the external jet air from the fan or compressor  515  and the temperature of the cooled cooling air from the compressor  520  to form thermally mixed air. In certain examples, the mixer  525  adjusts the temperature of the combined external jet air and cooled cooling air (e.g., cools down the external jet air into cooling air). In some examples, the mixer  525  adjusts the temperature of the combined external jet air and cooled cooling air based on a temperature control signal from the controller  310 . In some examples, the combined external jet air and cooled cooling air of the mixer  525  is referred to as mixed air. The combination of different temperatures is referred to as thermally mixed air. In some examples, the mixer  525  is connected to the HPT case cooler/deflector  530  of the ACC system  505  and the rotating parts cooler and clearance control  545  of the CCA system  510  via the valve  550  and the valve  555 , respectively. 
     In some examples, the valve  550  opens and closes for different positions to allow for the cooling air from the mixer  525  to the HPT case cooler/deflector  530  (e.g., the HP turbine  118  case). The valve  550  is controlled by the controller  310 , where the controller  310  opens and closes the valve  550  to control the airflow of the cooling air in the ACC system  505 . The HPT case cooler/deflector  530  receives the cooling air from the mixer  525  and obtains the cooling air for cooling the case of the turbine (e.g., the HP turbine  118  or the LP turbine  120  of  FIG. 1 ) and/or compressor (e.g., the LP compressor  112  or the high HP compressor  114  of  FIG. 1 ). The HPT case cooler/deflector  530  directs the cooling air to the undercowl  535  and the low pressure turbine (LPT) case cooler/deflector  540 . In some examples, the undercowl  535  is a covering on the turbine and/or compressor. The HPT case cooler/deflector  530  directs the cooling air to the undercowl  535  to apply the cooling air to the surfaces of the cases of the turbine and/or compressor to cool the case and decrease the clearance for the turbine engine (e.g., gas turbine engine  100  of  FIG. 1 ). In some examples, the LPT case cooler/deflector  540  directly applies the cooling air to the surface of the LPT case (e.g., the case of the LP turbine  120  of  FIG. 1 ). The HPT case cooler/deflector  530  is connected to the LPT case cooler/deflector  540  through the valve  560 . The HPT case cooler/deflector  530  directs the cooling air to the LPT case cooler/deflector  540  through the valve  560 . In some examples, the mixer  525  directs the thermally mixed air directly to the LPT case cooler/deflector  540 . 
     In some examples, the valve  560  opens and closes to allow for the cooling air to flow from the HPT case cooler/deflector  530  directly to the LPT case cooler/deflector  540 . The valve  560  is controlled by the controller  310 , where the controller  310  opens and closes the valve  560  to control the airflow of the cooling air directly to the LPT case cooler/deflector  540 . In the illustrated example of  FIG. 5 , the HPT case cooler/deflector  530  can direct airflow to the HP turbine case (e.g., the HP turbine  118  case) and to both the undercowl  535  and the LPT case cooler/deflector  540  to better control clearance for EGT overshoot or optimization of clearance at other point(s) in the flight mission when needed by the gas turbine engine (e.g., the deteriorated engine condition). 
     In some examples, the valve  555  opens and closes to allow for the cooling air to flow from the mixer  525  to the rotating parts cooler and clearance control  545  of the CCA system  510 . In some examples, the valve  555  is controlled by the controller  310 , where the controller  310  opens and closes the valve  555  to control the clearance through changing the flow rate of the cooling air through the valve  555 . The rotating parts cooler and clearance control  545  applies the cooling air from the mixer  525  to the rotating parts of the turbine (e.g., the HP turbine  118  or the LP turbine  120  of  FIG. 1 ) and/or compressor (e.g., the LP compressor  112  or the high HP compressor  114  of  FIG. 1 ). The rotating parts cooler and clearance control  545  applies the cooling air to the rotating parts (e.g., blades, disks, etc.) inside the turbine and/or compressor to adjust the deflection of the rotating parts and control the clearance between the rotating parts and the case of the turbine and/or compressor. 
     In the illustrated example of  FIG. 5 , the ACC system  505  and CCA system  510  are integrated through the mixer  525 . In the illustrated example of  FIG. 5 , the ACC system  505  and the CCA system  510  obtain air from separate sources (e.g., the fan or compressor  515  and the compressor  520  respectively). The controller  310  of  FIG. 5  controls the mixing of the air between the ACC system  505  and the CCA system  510  through the mixer  525 . The controller  310  opens and adjusts the flow rate through the valve  550  and the valve  555  using flow rate control signals to allow the mixer  525  to provide the cooling air to the ACC system  505  and the CCA system  510 . The valves  550  and  555  allow the clearance control module  320  to achieve tight clearance for the gas turbine engine  100  by integrating the ACC system  505  and the CCA system  510 . In the case of EGT overshoot, the controller  310  can increase the flow rate of the valve  550  to control the temperature of the air in the HPT case cooler/deflector  530  to provide the necessary clearance control from the CCA system  510  to the ACC system  505 . In some examples, the ACC system  505  and the CCA system  510  are implemented in a turbine (e.g., the HP turbine  118  and/or the LP turbine  120  of  FIG. 1 ). However, in some examples, a compressor (e.g., the LP compressor  112  and/or the HP compressor  114  of  FIG. 1 ) does not include an ACC system (e.g., the ACC system  505 ). Instead, the compressor includes a PCC system to control clearance instead of the ACC system, where the PCC system is not controlled by the controller  310 . In such examples, the CCA system  510  is implemented with a PCC system in the compressor (e.g., the LP compressor  112  and/or the HP compressor  114  of  FIG. 1 ). 
       FIG. 6  is a process control diagram  600  of an example interaction between the engine sensor(s)  315 , the controller  310 , the heat exchanger  440 , and the valves  450 ,  455 , and  460  of the CCA-ACC system  400  of  FIG. 4 . 
     As shown in the example of  FIG. 6 , the controller  310  of  FIG. 4  requests condition parameters  602  from the engine sensor(s)  315 . The engine sensor(s)  315  respond to the controller  310  with a return of condition parameters  604 . For example, the controller  310  receives values for a plurality of input variables relating to flight condition parameters (e.g., air density, throttle lever position, engine temperatures, engine pressures, etc.). The engine sensor(s)  315  return the condition parameters to the controller  310 . The engine sensor(s)  315  can be mounted on the gas turbine engine  100  and/or positioned elsewhere in the aircraft (e.g., on wing, in cockpit, in main cabin, in engine compartment, in cargo, etc.). The controller  310  computes engine operating parameters such as fuel flow, stator vane position, air bleed valve position, etc., using the flight condition parameters returned by the engine sensor(s)  315 . 
     The controller  310  triggers a temperature control signal  606  to the heat exchanger  440  of  FIG. 4  based on the condition parameters returned by the engine sensor(s)  315 . In the illustrated example of  FIG. 6 , the controller  310  determines if the clearance between the rotating parts of the turbine engine and the case is decreasing and/or if there is EGT overshoot in the turbine engine from the condition parameters returned by the engine sensor(s)  315 . The controller  310  triggers a temperature control signal  606  to the heat exchanger  440  based on this determination. For example, the value of the temperature control signal is different based on whether the clearance between the rotating parts of the turbine engine and the case is decreasing and/or if there is EGT overshoot in the turbine engine. Based on the value of the temperature control signal, the heat exchanger  440  decreases the air temperature  608  or increases the air temperature  610 . For example, when the temperature control signal has a value A, the heat exchanger  440  decreases the air temperature  608 , and, when the temperature control signal has a value B, the heat exchanger  440  increases the air temperature  610 . In some examples, the value of the temperature control signal is determined based on a temperature measurement in the case of the turbine engine. 
     The controller  310  triggers a flow rate control signal  612  to the valve  455  of  FIG. 4  based on the condition parameters returned by the engine sensor(s)  315 . In the illustrated example of  FIG. 6 , the controller  310  determines if the clearance between the rotating parts of the turbine engine and the case is decreasing or if there is EGT overshoot in the turbine engine from the condition parameters returned by the engine sensor(s)  315 . The controller  310  triggers a flow rate control signal  612  to the valve  455  based on this determination. For example, the value of the flow rate control signal is different based on whether the clearance between the rotating parts of the turbine engine and the case is decreasing and/or if there is EGT overshoot in the turbine engine. In some examples, the controller  310  triggers the flow rate control signal  612  to the valve  455  based on the engine condition schedule. For example, if the engine condition is set on the cruise condition, the controller  310  triggers the flow rate control signal  612  to the valve  455  to open the valve  455  to decrease the clearance to improve engine performance. In some examples, if the engine condition is set in the take-off condition, the controller  310  triggers the flow rate control signal  612  to the valve  455  to close the valve  455  to increase the clearance to avoid potential rub events in the maneuver margin during take-off and climb. In some examples, if there is EGT overshoot, the controller  310  triggers the flow rate control signal  612  to the valve  455  to open the valve  455  to compensate for the EGT overshoot. Based on the value of the flow rate control signal, the valve  455  increases air flow  614  or decreases air flow  616  by opening and closing respectively. For example, when the flow rate control signal has a value A, the valve  455  opens and increases the air flow  614 , and, when the flow rate control signal has a value B, the valve  455  closes and decreases the air flow  616 . 
     The controller  310  triggers a flow rate control signal  618  to the valve  460  of  FIG. 4  based on the condition parameters returned by the engine sensor(s)  315 . In the illustrated example of  FIG. 6 , the controller  310  determines if the clearance between the rotating parts of the turbine engine and the case is decreasing and/or if there is EGT overshoot in the turbine engine from the condition parameters returned by the engine sensor(s)  315 . The controller  310  triggers a flow rate control signal  618  to the valve  460  based on this determination. For example, the value of the flow rate control signal is different based on whether the clearance between the rotating parts of the turbine engine and the case is decreasing and/or if there is EGT overshoot in the turbine engine. In some examples, the controller  310  triggers the flow rate control signal  618  to the valve  460  based on the engine condition schedule. For example, if the engine condition is set on the cruise condition, the controller  310  triggers the flow rate control signal  618  to the valve  460  to close the valve  460  to decrease the clearance to improve engine performance. In some examples, the controller  310  triggers the flow rate control signal  618  to the valve  460  based on the condition of the engine. For example, if the engine is in a new engine condition, the controller  310  does not trigger the flow rate control signal  618  because the ACC system  405  covers the clearance range. In some examples, if the engine is in a deteriorated condition, the controller  310  triggers the flow rate control signal  618  to the valve  460  to close the valve  460  to decrease the clearance to compensate for the deteriorated engine condition. In some examples, if there is EGT overshoot, the controller  310  triggers the flow rate control signal  618  to the valve  460  to close the valve  460  to compensate for the EGT overshoot. Based on the value of the flow rate control signal, the valve  460  increases air flow  620  or decreases air flow  622 . For example, when the flow rate control signal has a value A, the valve  460  increases the air flow  620 , and, when the flow rate control signal has a value B, the valve  460  decreases the air flow  622 . 
     The controller  310  triggers a flow rate control signal  624  to the valve  465  of  FIG. 4  based on the condition parameters returned by the engine sensor(s)  315 . In the illustrated example of  FIG. 6 , the controller  310  determines if the clearance between the rotating parts of the turbine engine and the case is decreasing and/or if there is EGT overshoot in the turbine engine from the condition parameters returned by the engine sensor(s)  315 . The controller  310  triggers a flow rate control signal  624  to the valve  465  based on this determination. For example, the value of the flow rate control signal is different based on whether the clearance between the rotating parts of the turbine engine and the case is decreasing and/or if there is EGT overshoot in the turbine engine. In some examples, the controller  310  triggers the flow rate control signal  624  to the valve  465  based on the engine condition schedule. For example, if the engine condition is set on the cruise condition, the controller  310  triggers the flow rate control signal  624  to the valve  465  to open the valve  465  to decrease the clearance to improve engine performance. In some examples, if the engine condition is set in the take-off condition, the controller  310  triggers the flow rate control signal  624  to the valve  465  to close the valve  465  to increase the clearance to avoid potential rub events in the maneuver margin during take-off and climb. In some examples, if there is EGT overshoot, the controller  310  triggers the flow rate control signal  624  to the valve  465  to open the valve  465  to compensate for the EGT overshoot. Based on the value of the flow rate control signal, the valve  465  increases air flow  626  or decreases air flow  628 . For example, when the flow rate control signal has a value A, the valve  465  increases the air flow  626 , and, when the flow rate control signal has a value B, the valve  465  decreases the air flow  628 . 
       FIG. 7  is a process control diagram  700  of an example interaction between the engine sensor(s)  315 , the controller  310 , the mixer  525 , and the three valves  550 ,  555 ,  560  of the example CCA-ACC system  500  of  FIG. 5 . 
     As shown in the example of  FIG. 7 , the controller  310  of  FIG. 5  requests condition parameters  702  from the engine sensor(s)  315 . The engine sensor(s)  315  respond to the controller  310  with a return of condition parameters  704 . For example, the controller  310  receives values for a plurality of input variables relating to flight condition parameters (e.g., air density, throttle lever position, engine temperatures, engine pressures, etc.). The engine sensor(s)  315  return the condition parameters to the controller  310 . The engine sensor(s)  315  can be mounted on the gas turbine engine  100  and/or positioned elsewhere in the aircraft (e.g., on wing, in cockpit, in main cabin, in engine compartment, in cargo, etc.). The controller  310  computes engine operating parameters such as fuel flow, stator vane position, air bleed valve position, etc., using the flight condition parameters returned by the engine sensor(s)  315 . 
     The controller  310  triggers a temperature control signal  706  to the mixer  525  of  FIG. 5  based on the condition parameters returned by the engine sensor(s)  315 . In the illustrated example of  FIG. 7 , the controller  310  determines if the clearance between the rotating parts of the turbine engine and the case is decreasing or if there is EGT overshoot in the turbine engine from the condition parameters returned by the engine sensor(s)  315 . The controller  310  triggers a temperature control signal  706  to the mixer  525  based on this determination. For example, the value of the temperature control signal is different based on whether the clearance between the rotating parts of the turbine engine and the case is decreasing and/or if there is EGT overshoot in the turbine engine. Based on the value of the temperature control signal, the mixer  525  decreases the air temperature  708  or increases the air temperature  710 . For example, when the temperature control signal has a value A, the mixer  525  decreases the air temperature  708 , and, when the temperature control signal has a value B, the mixer  525  increases the air temperature  710 . In some examples, the value of the temperature control signal is determined based on a temperature measurement in the case of the turbine engine. The mixer  525  increases and decreases the air temperature using the thermal mixer included in the mixer  525 , which operates similar to the heat exchanger  440  of  FIG. 4 . 
     The controller  310  triggers a flow rate control signal  712  to the valve  550  of  FIG. 5  based on the condition parameters returned by the engine sensor(s)  315 . In the illustrated example of  FIG. 7 , the controller  310  determines if the clearance between the rotating parts of the turbine engine and the case is decreasing or if there is EGT overshoot in the turbine engine from the condition parameters returned by the engine sensor(s)  315 . The controller  310  triggers a flow rate control signal  712  to the valve  550  based on this determination. For example, the value of the flow rate control signal is different based on whether the clearance between the rotating parts of the turbine engine and the case is decreasing and/or if there is EGT overshoot in the turbine engine. In some examples, the controller  310  triggers the flow rate control signal  712  to the valve  550  based on the engine condition schedule. For example, if the engine condition is set on the cruise condition, the controller  310  triggers the flow rate control signal  712  to the valve  550  to open the valve  550  to decrease the clearance to improve engine performance. In some examples, if the engine condition is set in the take-off condition, the controller  310  triggers the flow rate control signal  712  to the valve  550  to close the valve  550  to increase the clearance to avoid potential rub events in the maneuver margin during take-off and climb. In some examples, if there is EGT overshoot, the controller  310  triggers the flow rate control signal  712  to the valve  550  to open the valve  550  to compensate for the EGT overshoot. Based on the value of the flow rate control signal, the valve  550  increases air flow  714  or decreases air flow  716 . For example, when the flow rate control signal has a value A, the valve  550  increases the air flow  714 , and, when the flow rate control signal has a value B, the valve  550  decreases the air flow  716 . 
     The controller  310  triggers a flow rate control signal  718  to the valve  555  of  FIG. 5  based on the condition parameters returned by the engine sensor(s)  315 . In the illustrated example of  FIG. 7 , the controller  310  determines if the clearance between the rotating parts of the turbine engine and the case is decreasing and/or if there is EGT overshoot in the turbine engine from the condition parameters returned by the engine sensor(s)  315 . The controller  310  triggers a flow rate control signal  718  to the valve  555  based on this determination. For example, the value of the flow rate control signal is different based on whether the clearance between the rotating parts of the turbine engine and the case is decreasing and/or if there is EGT overshoot in the turbine engine. In some examples, the controller  310  triggers the flow rate control signal  718  to the valve  555  based on the engine condition schedule. For example, if the engine condition is set on the cruise condition, the controller  310  triggers the flow rate control signal  718  to the valve  555  to close the valve  555  to decrease the clearance to improve engine performance. In some examples, the controller  310  triggers the flow rate control signal  718  to the valve  555  based on the condition of the engine. For example, if the engine is in a new engine condition, the controller  310  does not trigger the flow rate control signal  718  because the ACC system  505  covers the clearance range. In some examples, if the engine is in a deteriorated condition, the controller  310  triggers the flow rate control signal  718  to the valve  555  to close the valve  555  to decrease the clearance to compensate for the deteriorated engine condition. In some examples, if there is EGT overshoot, the controller  310  triggers the flow rate control signal  718  to the valve  555  to close the valve  555  to compensate for the EGT overshoot. Based on the value of the flow rate control signal, the valve  555  increases air flow  720  or decreases air flow  722 . For example, when the flow rate control signal has a value A, the valve  555  increases the air flow  720 , and, when the flow rate control signal has a value B, the valve  555  decreases the air flow  722 . 
     The controller  310  triggers a flow rate control signal  724  to the valve  560  of  FIG. 5  based on the condition parameters returned by the engine sensor(s)  315 . In the illustrated example of  FIG. 7 , the controller  310  determines if the clearance between the rotating parts of the turbine engine and the case is decreasing and/or if there is EGT overshoot in the turbine engine from the condition parameters returned by the engine sensor(s)  315 . The controller  310  triggers a flow rate control signal  724  to the valve  560  based on this determination. For example, the value of the flow rate control signal is different based on whether the clearance between the rotating parts of the turbine engine and the case is decreasing and/or if there is EGT overshoot in the turbine engine. In some examples, the controller  310  triggers the flow rate control signal  724  to the valve  560  based on the engine condition schedule. For example, if the engine condition is set on the cruise condition, the controller  310  triggers the flow rate control signal  724  to the valve  560  to open the valve  560  to decrease the clearance to improve engine performance. In some examples, if the engine condition is set in the take-off condition, the controller  310  triggers the flow rate control signal  724  to the valve  560  to close the valve  560  to increase the clearance to avoid potential rub events in the maneuver margin during take-off and climb. In some examples, if there is EGT overshoot, the controller  310  triggers the flow rate control signal  724  to the valve  560  to open the valve  560  to compensate for the EGT overshoot. Based on the value of the flow rate control signal, the valve  560  increases air flow  726  or decreases air flow  728 . For example, when the flow rate control signal has a value A, the valve  560  increases the air flow  726 , and, when the flow rate control signal has a value B, the valve  560  decreases the air flow  728 . 
       FIGS. 8A, 8B  are example graph representations of typical turbine clearances for example prior ACC systems  200  and  250  of  FIGS. 2A and 2B . The example graph  800  of  FIG. 8A  illustrates clearance measurement for a gas turbine engine (e.g., the gas turbine engine  100  of  FIG. 1 ) in a new engine condition (e.g., an engine that has not been used before or an engine that has been used a small amount of times) with the prior ACC systems  200  and  250  of  FIGS. 2A and 2B . The graph  800  includes the speed measurement  805  for the gas turbine engine and the clearance measurement  810  for the gas turbine engine with the prior ACC systems  200  and  250  of  FIGS. 2A and 2B . In the graph  800 , the x-axis is representative of time and the y-axis is representative of clearance measurement between the stator and rotor of the gas turbine engine. In the prior systems  200  and  250  of  FIGS. 2A and 2B , the ACC systems use only fan/compressor air (e.g., the fan or compressor  205 ) that does not have sufficient clearance control capability (e.g., the ACC systems do not provide sufficient power, airflow, cooling temperature adjustment, clearance precision, etc.) at low power (e.g., ground idle (Gil)) to control the clearance in the gas turbine engine as the engine is deteriorated. In the new engine condition of graph  800 , the prior systems  200  and  250  use the full clearance control power of the ACC system to control clearance and the EGT overshoot at take-off (T/O). 
     The example graph  820  of  FIG. 8B  illustrates clearance measurement for the gas turbine engine in a deteriorated condition. The graph  820  includes the speed measurement  805  for the gas turbine engine, the clearance measurement  825  for the gas turbine engine with the prior ACC systems  200  and  250  of  FIGS. 2A and 2B , and the clearance measurement  830  for the deteriorated engine condition. In the graph  820 , the x-axis is representative of time and the y-axis is representative of clearance measurement between the stator and rotor of the gas turbine engine In the prior systems  200  and  250  of  FIGS. 2A and 2B , the ACC systems use only fan/compressor air (e.g., the fan or compressor  205 ) that does not have sufficient clearance control capability at low power (e.g., G/I) to control the clearance in the gas turbine engine. In the deteriorated engine condition of graph  820 , the prior systems  200  and  250  do not have the capability to control the case to control clearance and the EGT overshoot at take-off (T/O), which is shown in the gap between the clearance measurement  825  and the new engine condition clearance measurement  810  of  FIG. 8A . 
       FIGS. 9A, 9B  are example graph representations of typical turbine clearances for the example CCA-ACC system  400  and  500  of  FIGS. 4, 5 . The example graph  900  of  FIG. 9A  illustrates clearance measurement for a gas turbine engine (e.g., the gas turbine engine  100  of  FIG. 1 ) in new engine condition with the CCA-ACC systems  400  and  500  of  FIGS. 4 and 5 . The graph  900  includes the speed measurement  905  for the gas turbine engine, the clearance measurement  910  for the gas turbine engine with the ACC systems of the clearance control module  320   FIGS. 4 and 5 , and the clearance measurement  910  for the gas turbine engine with the ACC and CCA systems  400 ,  500  of the clearance control module  320  of  FIGS. 4 and 5 . In the graph  900 , the x-axis is representative of time and the y-axis is representative of clearance measurement between the stator and rotor of the gas turbine engine. In the CCA-ACC systems of  FIGS. 4 and 5 , the ACC systems are integrated with the CCA systems to provide sufficient clearance control capability (e.g., the CCA systems provide additional power, airflow, cooling temperature adjustment, clearance precision, etc.) at low power (e.g., G/I) to control the clearance in the gas turbine engine. The integrated CCA system optimizes clearance control from the ACC system as seen in the clearance measurement  910  for the gas turbine engine with the ACC and CCA systems  400 ,  500 . 
     The example graph  920  of  FIG. 9B  illustrates clearance measurement for a gas turbine engine (e.g., the gas turbine engine  100  of  FIG. 1 ) in deteriorated engine condition with the CCA-ACC systems  400  and  500  of  FIGS. 4 and 5 . The graph  920  includes the speed measurement  905  for the gas turbine engine, the clearance measurement  925  for the gas turbine engine with the ACC systems of the clearance control module  320   FIGS. 4 and 5 , and the clearance measurement  930  for the gas turbine engine with the ACC and CCA systems of the clearance control module  320  of  FIGS. 4 and 5 . In the graph  900 , the x-axis is representative of time and the y-axis is representative of clearance measurement between the stator and rotor of the gas turbine engine. In the CCA-ACC systems of  FIGS. 4 and 5 , the ACC systems are integrated with the CCA systems to provide sufficient clearance control capability at low power (e.g., G/I) to control the clearance and EGT in the gas turbine engine. In the deteriorated engine condition of graph  920 , the clearance measurement  925  for the gas turbine engine with the ACC system does not reach the target clearance because the ACC system does not have the capability to cool the case to control clearance as the new engine condition of  FIG. 9A . However, the integrated CCA system provides increased clearance power (e.g., provides additional power, airflow, cooling temperature adjustment, clearance precision, etc.) to the ACC system to reach the target clearance as seen in the clearance measurement  930  for the gas turbine engine with the ACC and CCA systems. 
     In the illustrated examples, the CCA-ACC systems  400  and  500  of  FIGS. 4 and 5  are able to achieve the same clearance margin in both the new engine condition ( FIG. 9A ) and the deteriorated engine condition ( 9 B). The CCA-ACC systems  400  and  500  of  FIGS. 4 and 5  are able to control the transient take-off (T/O) clearance pinch and maintain the EGT margin effectively compared to prior ACC systems  200  and  250  of  FIGS. 2A and 2B  as seen in  FIGS. 8A and 8B . 
       FIG. 10  is an example graph representation of EGT and Time-on-Wing (TOW) improvements for the example CCA-ACC systems  400  and  500  of  FIGS. 4 and 5 . The example graph  1000  of  FIG. 10  illustrates the EGT measurement  1005  for the prior ACC systems  200  and  250  of  FIGS. 2A and 2B  and the EGT measurement  1010  for the CCA-ACC systems  400  and  500  of  FIGS. 4 and 5 . In the graph  1000 , the x-axis is representative of flight cycles for the gas turbine engine (e.g., how many flights the engine operates during), and the y-axis is representative of the EGT measurement for those flight cycles. The graph  1000  includes an EGT limit, where the gas turbine engine TOW is met and the gas turbine engine is refurbished or retired (e.g., no longer able to be used). The EGT limit of graph  1000  illustrates the maximum EGT a gas turbine can reach before it is too deteriorated for continued operation. The graph  1000  illustrates that the EGT measurement  1010  for the CCA-ACC systems  400  and  500  of  FIGS. 4 and 5  does not reach the EGT limit until much later in flight cycles compared to the EGT measurement  1005  for the prior ACC systems  200  and  250  of  FIGS. 2A and 2B . The delay in reaching the EGT limit for the CCA-ACC systems  400  and  500  of  FIGS. 4 and 5  also extends the TOW for the gas turbine engine with the CCA-ACC systems  400  and  500  of  FIGS. 4 and 5  since the EGT limit is reached much later in flight cycles as seen in the EGT measurement  1010 . The graph  1000  illustrates how the heat exchanger  440  and mixer  525  of the CCA-ACC systems  400  and  500  of  FIGS. 4 and 5  respectively provide enough clearance control capability (e.g., power, airflow, cooling temperature adjustment, clearance precision, etc.) for the necessary EGT recovery of a gas turbine engine by providing additional changes in airflow and temperature to the components of the gas turbine engine (e.g., the case and rotating parts), which improves the TOW for deteriorated engines. 
       FIG. 11  is an example graph of typical, two-dimensional compressor clearance closure for the prior ACC systems  200  and  250  of  FIGS. 2A and 2B  and the example CCA-ACC systems  400  and  500  of  FIGS. 4, 5 . The example graph  1100  of  FIG. 11  illustrates the clearance closure for the prior ACC systems  200  and  250  of  FIGS. 2A and 2B  and the CCA-ACC systems  400  and  500  of  FIGS. 4, 5  during a burst mission cycle simulated by high performance computing (HPC). The graph  1100  includes an example speed measurement  1105 , an example clearance closure measurement  1110  for the prior ACC systems  200  and  250  of  FIGS. 2A and 2B , and an example clearance closure measurement  1115  for the CCA-ACC systems  400  and  500  of  FIGS. 4 and 5 . The graph  1100  illustrates the increase in clearance closure for the CCA-ACC systems  400  and  500  of  FIGS. 4 and 5  (clearance closure measurement  1115 ) compared to the clearance closure for the prior ACC systems  200  and  250  of  FIGS. 2A and 2B  (clearance closure measurement  1110 ). 
       FIG. 12  is an example schematic  1200  of rotor relative radial movement in a typical compressor for an example PCC system (e.g., a compressor without an ACC system). In some examples, the schematic  1200  illustrates rotor relative radial movement based on a PCC system that is controlled by material selection and mechanical design (e.g., not controller by a controller). In the schematic  1200 , the boxes are representative of the rotor placement in relation to the stator  1205  (clearance) of the gas turbine engine for the PCC system. The schematic  1200  includes an example rotor placement for a cold engine  1210 , an example rotor placement for an engine during transient take-off (T/O)  1215 , an example rotor placement for an engine during bloom  1220 , an example rotor placement for an engine at high power  1225 , and an example rotor placement for an engine at cruise  1235 . In some examples, the rotor placement for the cold engine  1210 , the transient T/O  1215 , the bloom  1220 , and the high power  1225  are associated with the clearance closure measurement  1110  of  FIG. 11 . The rotor placement for an engine at high power  1225  includes an example limiting clearance  1230 . The rotor placement for an engine at cruise  1235  also includes the clearance measurement  1240 . 
     In the illustrated example of  FIG. 12 , the clearance between the rotor and the stator  1205  are limited by the prior systems of a typical compressor, PCC, for the high power  1225  and cruise  1235  conditions. The schematic  1200  includes a limiting clearance  1230  for the rotor placement for an engine at high power  1225  represents that the prior system of typical compressor design, PCC system, does not have enough clearance control capability to control the limiting clearance  1230  at high power. 
       FIG. 13  is an example schematic  1300  of rotor relative radial movement in a typical compressor for the example CCA-ACC systems  400  and  500  of  FIGS. 4 and 5 . In some examples, the schematic  1300  of rotor relative radial movement changed by the CCA systems of the CCA-ACC systems  400  and  500  of  FIGS. 4 and 5 . In the schematic  1300 , the boxes are representative of the rotor placement in relation to the stator  1305  (clearance) of the gas turbine engine for the CCA-ACC systems  400  and  500  of  FIGS. 4 and 5 . In some examples, the boxes are associated with the clearance closure measurement  1115  of  FIG. 11  for each of the engine conditions. The schematic  1300  includes an example rotor placement for a cold engine  1310 , an example rotor placement for an engine during transient take-off (T/O)  1315 , an example rotor placement for an engine during bloom  1320 , an example rotor placement for an engine at high power  1325 , and an example rotor placement for an engine at cruise  1335 . The rotor placement for an engine at high power  1325  includes an example clearance measurement  1330  from the stator  1305 . The rotor placement for an engine at cruise  1335  also includes the clearance measurement  1340 . 
     In the illustrated example of  FIG. 13 , the clearance between the rotor and the stator  1305  for the high power  1325  and cruise  1335  conditions are improved by the CCA-ACC systems  400  and  500  of  FIGS. 4 and 5  compared to the PCC system of the compressor of  FIG. 12 . The schematic  1300  illustrates a tighter clearance for the clearance measurement  1330  for the rotor placement for an engine at high power  1325  and for the clearance measurement  1340  for the rotor placement for an engine at cruise  1335  compared to the cruise clearance  1240  of  FIG. 12  described above. The illustrated example of  FIG. 13  illustrates the improved clearance (e.g., tighter clearance at cruise to improve performance point) between the rotor and stator  1305  with the CCA-ACC systems  400  and  500  of  FIGS. 4 and 5 . 
     While an example manner of implementing the controller  310  of  FIG. 3  is illustrated in  FIGS. 4, 5, 6, and 7 , one or more of the elements, processes and/or devices illustrated in  FIGS. 4, 5, 6, and 7  may be combined, divided, re-arranged, omitted, eliminated and/or implemented in any other way. Further, sensor(s) processor  325 , the example flow rate controller  330 , the example temperature controller  335  and/or, more generally, the example controller  310  of  FIG. 3  may be implemented by hardware, software, firmware and/or any combination of hardware, software and/or firmware. Thus, for example, any of the example sensor(s) processor  325 , the example flow rate controller  330 , the example temperature controller  335  and/or, more generally, the example controller  310  could be implemented by one or more analog or digital circuit(s), logic circuits, programmable processor(s), programmable controller(s), graphics processing unit(s) (GPU(s)), digital signal processor(s) (DSP(s)), application specific integrated circuit(s) (ASIC(s)), programmable logic device(s) (PLD(s)) and/or field programmable logic device(s) (FPLD(s)). When reading any of the apparatus or system claims of this patent to cover a purely software and/or firmware implementation, at least one of the example sensor(s) processor  325 , the example flow rate controller  330 , and/or the example temperature controller  335  is/are hereby expressly defined to include a non-transitory computer readable storage device or storage disk such as a memory, a digital versatile disk (DVD), a compact disk (CD), a Blu-ray disk, etc. including the software and/or firmware. Further still, the example controller  310  of  FIG. 3  may include one or more elements, processes and/or devices in addition to, or instead of, those illustrated in  FIGS. 4, 5, 6, and 7 , and/or may include more than one of any or all of the illustrated elements, processes and devices. As used herein, the phrase “in communication,” including variations thereof, encompasses direct communication and/or indirect communication through one or more intermediary components, and does not require direct physical (e.g., wired) communication and/or constant communication, but rather additionally includes selective communication at periodic intervals, scheduled intervals, aperiodic intervals, and/or one-time events. 
     Flowcharts representative of example hardware logic, machine readable instructions, hardware implemented state machines, and/or any combination thereof for implementing the controller  310  of  FIG. 3  is shown in  FIGS. 14 and 15 . The machine readable instructions may be one or more executable programs or portion(s) of an executable program for execution by a computer processor and/or processor circuitry, such as the processor  1612  shown in the example processor platform  1600  discussed below in connection with  FIG. 16 . The program may be embodied in software stored on a non-transitory computer readable storage medium such as a CD-ROM, a floppy disk, a hard drive, a DVD, a Blu-ray disk, or a memory associated with the processor  1612 , but the entire program and/or parts thereof could alternatively be executed by a device other than the processor  1612  and/or embodied in firmware or dedicated hardware. Further, although the example program is described with reference to the flowchart illustrated in  FIGS. 14 and 15 , many other methods of implementing the example controller  310  may alternatively be used. For example, the order of execution of the blocks may be changed, and/or some of the blocks described may be changed, eliminated, or combined. Additionally or alternatively, any or all of the blocks may be implemented by one or more hardware circuits (e.g., discrete and/or integrated analog and/or digital circuitry, an FPGA, an ASIC, a comparator, an operational-amplifier (op-amp), a logic circuit, etc.) structured to perform the corresponding operation without executing software or firmware. The processor circuitry may be distributed in different network locations and/or local to one or more devices (e.g., a multi-core processor in a single machine, multiple processors distributed across a server rack, etc.). 
     The machine readable instructions described herein may be stored in one or more of a compressed format, an encrypted format, a fragmented format, a compiled format, an executable format, a packaged format, etc. Machine readable instructions as described herein may be stored as data or a data structure (e.g., portions of instructions, code, representations of code, etc.) that may be utilized to create, manufacture, and/or produce machine executable instructions. For example, the machine readable instructions may be fragmented and stored on one or more storage devices and/or computing devices (e.g., servers) located at the same or different locations of a network or collection of networks (e.g., in the cloud, in edge devices, etc.). The machine readable instructions may require one or more of installation, modification, adaptation, updating, combining, supplementing, configuring, decryption, decompression, unpacking, distribution, reassignment, compilation, etc. in order to make them directly readable, interpretable, and/or executable by a computing device and/or other machine. For example, the machine readable instructions may be stored in multiple parts, which are individually compressed, encrypted, and stored on separate computing devices, wherein the parts when decrypted, decompressed, and combined form a set of executable instructions that implement one or more functions that may together form a program such as that described herein. 
     In another example, the machine readable instructions may be stored in a state in which they may be read by processor circuitry, but require addition of a library (e.g., a dynamic link library (DLL)), a software development kit (SDK), an application programming interface (API), etc. in order to execute the instructions on a particular computing device or other device. In another example, the machine readable instructions may need to be configured (e.g., settings stored, data input, network addresses recorded, etc.) before the machine readable instructions and/or the corresponding program(s) can be executed in whole or in part. Thus, machine readable media, as used herein, may include machine readable instructions and/or program(s) regardless of the particular format or state of the machine readable instructions and/or program(s) when stored or otherwise at rest or in transit. 
     The machine readable instructions described herein can be represented by any past, present, or future instruction language, scripting language, programming language, etc. For example, the machine readable instructions may be represented using any of the following languages: C, C++, Java, C#, Perl, Python, JavaScript, HyperText Markup Language (HTML), Structured Query Language (SQL), Swift, etc. 
     As mentioned above, the example processes of  FIGS. 14 and 15  may be implemented using executable instructions (e.g., computer and/or machine readable instructions) stored on a non-transitory computer and/or machine readable medium such as a hard disk drive, a flash memory, a read-only memory, a compact disk, a digital versatile disk, a cache, a random-access memory and/or any other storage device or storage disk in which information is stored for any duration (e.g., for extended time periods, permanently, for brief instances, for temporarily buffering, and/or for caching of the information). As used herein, the term non-transitory computer readable medium is expressly defined to include any type of computer readable storage device and/or storage disk and to exclude propagating signals and to exclude transmission media. 
     “Including” and “comprising” (and all forms and tenses thereof) are used herein to be open ended terms. Thus, whenever a claim employs any form of “include” or “comprise” (e.g., comprises, includes, comprising, including, having, etc.) as a preamble or within a claim recitation of any kind, it is to be understood that additional elements, terms, etc. may be present without falling outside the scope of the corresponding claim or recitation. As used herein, when the phrase “at least” is used as the transition term in, for example, a preamble of a claim, it is open-ended in the same manner as the term “comprising” and “including” are open ended. The term “and/or” when used, for example, in a form such as A, B, and/or C refers to any combination or subset of A, B, C such as (1) A alone, (2) B alone, (3) C alone, (4) A with B, (5) A with C, (6) B with C, and (7) A with B and with C. As used herein in the context of describing structures, components, items, objects and/or things, the phrase “at least one of A and B” is intended to refer to implementations including any of (1) at least one A, (2) at least one B, and (3) at least one A and at least one B. Similarly, as used herein in the context of describing structures, components, items, objects and/or things, the phrase “at least one of A or B” is intended to refer to implementations including any of (1) at least one A, (2) at least one B, and (3) at least one A and at least one B. As used herein in the context of describing the performance or execution of processes, instructions, actions, activities and/or steps, the phrase “at least one of A and B” is intended to refer to implementations including any of (1) at least one A, (2) at least one B, and (3) at least one A and at least one B. Similarly, as used herein in the context of describing the performance or execution of processes, instructions, actions, activities and/or steps, the phrase “at least one of A or B” is intended to refer to implementations including any of (1) at least one A, (2) at least one B, and (3) at least one A and at least one B. 
     As used herein, singular references (e.g., “a”, “an”, “first”, “second”, etc.) do not exclude a plurality. The term “a” or “an” entity, as used herein, refers to one or more of that entity. The terms “a” (or “an”), “one or more”, and “at least one” can be used interchangeably herein. Furthermore, although individually listed, a plurality of means, elements or method actions may be implemented by, e.g., a single unit or processor. Additionally, although individual features may be included in different examples or claims, these may possibly be combined, and the inclusion in different examples or claims does not imply that a combination of features is not feasible and/or advantageous. 
       FIG. 14  is a flowchart representative of machine readable instructions which may be executed to implement the example controller of  FIG. 3  in conjunction with the example CCA-ACC system  400  of  FIG. 4 . The program  1400  of  FIG. 14  begins execution at block  1410  at which the example sensor(s) processor  325  obtains the sensor data from the example engine sensor(s)  315 . In some examples, the sensor data includes the flight condition data obtained by the engine sensor(s)  315  from an engine (e.g., the gas turbine engine  100  of  FIG. 1 ). In some examples, flight condition data of the sensor data includes values for a plurality of input variables relating to flight conditions (e.g., air density, throttle lever position, engine temperatures, engine pressures, etc.). 
     At block  1415 , the sensor(s) processor  325  monitors the engine conditions based on the sensor data from the engine sensor(s)  315 . For example, the sensor(s) processor  325  can calculate and monitor the fuel flow, stator vane position, air bleed valve position, direct clearance measurements, indirect clearance measurements, etc., using the flight condition data included in the sensor data. For example, the sensors data from the engine sensor(s)  315  can include air temperature measurements, engine pressure measurements, airflow measurements from valves in the engine, distance between components (e.g., stator, rotor, etc.), etc. The sensor(s) processor  325  can use these measurements to calculate and monitor engine conditions (e.g., the distance between the stator and rotor from the sensor data can be used to determine a direct clearance measurement). In some examples, the sensor(s) processor  325  compares the engine conditions to known model estimates for those conditions to monitor the engine conditions for any changes. At block  1420 , the sensor(s) processor  325  determines if the clearance between the case and the rotating parts is decreasing based on the engine conditions determined from the obtained flight condition data. For example, the sensor(s) processor  325  can determine/calculate the clearance between the stator and rotor of the engine based on the sensor data from the engine sensor(s)  315 . In this example, the sensor(s) processor  325  compares the clearance calculation from the sensor data to the target clearance scheduled for the operating conditions by the controller  310  for the clearance measurement to determine whether a change in clearance is warranted for the gas turbine engine  100 . In some examples, the sensor(s) processor  325  determines if the clearance between the case and the rotating parts is decreasing based on the comparison between the clearance calculation and the target clearance. If the sensor(s) processor  325  determines that the clearance between the case the rotating parts is not decreasing, then the program  1400  continues to block  1425  at which the sensor(s) processor  325  determines if there is exhaust gas temperature overshoot. If the sensor(s) processor  325  determines that the clearance between the case and the rotating parts is decreasing, then the program  1400  continues to block  1430  at which the example flow rate controller  330  transmits a flow rate control signal to the valve between the heat exchanger and case cooler. 
     At block  1425 , the sensor(s) processor  325  determines if there is exhaust gas temperature overshoot. In some examples, the sensor(s) processor  325  determines if there is exhaust gas temperature overshoot based on the engine conditions determined from the obtained flight condition data. For example, the sensor(s) processor  325  directly measures exhaust gas temperature from EGT sensors. If the sensor(s) processor  325  determines there is exhaust gas temperature overshoot, then program  1400  continues to block  1430  at which the flow rate controller  330  transmits a flow rate control signal to the valve between the heat exchanger and case cooler. If the sensor(s) processor  325  determines that there is no exhaust gas temperature overshoot, then program  1400  returns to block  1410  at which the sensor(s) processor  325  obtains the sensor data. 
     At block  1430 , the flow rate controller  330  transmits a flow rate control signal to the valve  455  between the heat exchanger  440  and the HPT case cooler/deflector  420  of  FIG. 4 . In some examples, the flow rate control signal causes the valve  455  to open and close to modulate/regulate the airflow rate between the heat exchanger  440  and the HPT case cooler/deflector  420  (e.g., the HP turbine  118  case). In some examples, the valve  455  is opened and closed in variable positions. For example, the valve  455  can be opened and closed into positions ranging from 0% open to 100% open to meet the target clearance. In some examples, if the difference between the calculated clearance and the target clearance is large, the flow rate control signal causes the valve  455  to open and close quickly to decrease the difference to zero (e.g., no difference between the calculate clearance and target clearance). In some examples, if the difference between the calculated clearance and the target clearance is small, the flow rate control signal causes the valve  455  to open and close slowly to decrease the difference to zero. In some examples, the controller  310  causes a lag time (e.g., the time for the controller  310  to transmit the flow rate control signal to the valve  455 ). In the illustrated example, the flow rate controller  330  transmits a flow rate control signal to the valve  455  that increases the airflow rate between the heat exchanger  440  and the HPT case cooler/deflector  420 . The increase in airflow rate increases the amount of cooling air to the HPT case cooler/deflector  420 , which provides more cooling air to the ACC system to decrease the clearance in response to an increase in clearance between the case and the rotating parts or an EGT overshoot. 
     At block  1435 , the flow rate controller  330  transmits a flow rate control signal to the valve  455  between the HPT case cooler/deflector  420  and the case cooling (e.g., the LPT case cooler/deflector  430 ) of  FIG. 4 . In some examples, the flow rate control signal causes the valve  455  to open and close to modulate/regulate the airflow rate between the HPT case cooler/deflector  420  and the LPT case cooler/deflector  430 . In the illustrated example, the flow rate controller  330  transmits a flow rate control signal to the valve  465  that increases the airflow rate between the HPT case cooler/deflector  420  and the LPT case cooler/deflector  430 . In the example for cooling and decreasing clearances, the increase in airflow rate increases the amount of cooling air to the LPT case cooler/deflector  430 , which decreases the clearance in response to an increase in clearance between the case and the rotating parts or an EGT overshoot. 
     At block  1440 , the flow rate controller  330  transmits a flow rate control signal to the valve  460  between the heat exchanger  440  and the rotating parts (e.g., the rotating parts cooler and clearance control  445 ) of  FIG. 4 . In some examples, the flow rate control signal causes the valve  460  to open and close to modulate/regulate the airflow rate between the heat exchanger  440  and the rotating parts cooler and clearance control  445 . In the illustrated example, the flow rate controller  330  transmits a flow rate control signal to the valve  460  that decreases the airflow rate between the heat exchanger  440  and the rotating parts cooler and clearance control  445 . The decrease in airflow rate decreases the amount of cooling air to the rotating parts cooler and clearance control  445 , which provides less cooling air (than the baseline) to the CCA system to decrease the clearance in response to an increase in clearance between the case and the rotating parts or an EGT overshoot. In some examples, the cooling air is provided to the CCA system when the EGT measured from the EGT sensors is over or near an EGT limit (e.g., an EGT overshoot). 
     At block  1445 , the example temperature controller  335  transmits a temperature control signal to the heat exchanger  440  of  FIG. 4 . In some examples, the temperature control signal causes the heat exchanger  440  to adjust/modulate the temperature of the cooling air in the heat exchanger  440 . In the illustrated example, the temperature controller  335  transmits a temperature control signal to the heat exchanger  440  that decreases the temperature of the cooling air. The decrease in air temperature allows the cooling air to cool the components of the turbine engine faster, which can control clearance more effectively by cooling the case and the rotating parts or an EGT overshoot in response to a change in clearance between the case and the rotating parts or an EGT overshoot. For example, applying cooling air to the case helps to decrease the clearance between the case and the rotating parts. In some examples, applying cooling air to the rotating parts (e.g., rotor) increases the clearance between the case and the rotating parts. Once the temperature controller  335  transmits the temperature control signal to the heat exchanger  440 , program  1400  ends. In some examples, program  1400  is a continuous loop where once the temperature controller  335  transmits the temperature control signal to the heat exchanger  440 , program  1400  returns to block  1410  at which the example sensor(s) processor  325  obtains the sensor data from the example engine sensor(s)  315 . 
       FIG. 15  is a flowchart representative of machine readable instructions which may be executed to implement the example controller of  FIG. 3  in conjunction with the example CCA-ACC system  500  of  FIG. 5 . The program  1500  of  FIG. 15  begins execution at block  1510  at which the example sensor(s) processor  325  obtains the sensor data from the example engine sensor(s)  315 . In some examples, the sensor data includes the flight condition data obtained by the engine sensor(s)  315  from an engine (e.g., the gas turbine engine  100  of  FIG. 1 ). In some examples, flight condition data of the sensor data includes values for a plurality of input variables relating to flight conditions (e.g., air density, throttle lever position, engine temperatures, engine pressures, etc.). 
     At block  1515 , the sensor(s) processor  325  monitors the engine conditions based on the sensor data from the engine sensor(s)  315 . For example, the sensor(s) processor  325  can calculate and monitor the fuel flow, stator vane position, air bleed valve position, direct clearance measurements, indirect clearance measurements, etc., using the flight condition data included in the sensor data. For example, the sensors data from the engine sensor(s)  315  can include air temperature measurements, engine pressure measurements, airflow measurements from valves in the engine, distance between components (e.g., stator, rotor, etc.), etc. The sensor(s) processor  325  can use these measurements to calculate and monitor engine conditions (e.g., the distance between the stator and rotor from the sensor data can be used to determine a direct clearance measurement). In some examples, the sensor(s) processor  325  compares the engine conditions to known model estimates for those conditions to monitor the engine conditions for any changes. At block  1520 , the sensor(s) processor  325  determines if the clearance between the case and the rotating parts is decreasing based on the engine conditions determined from the obtained flight condition data. For example, the sensor(s) processor  325  can determine/calculate the clearance between the stator and rotor of the engine based on the sensor data from the engine sensor(s)  315 . In this example, the sensor(s) processor  325  compares the clearance calculation from the sensor data to the target clearance scheduled for the operating conditions by the controller  310  for the clearance measurement to determine a change in clearance is warranted. In some examples, the sensor(s) processor  325  determines if the clearance between the case and the rotating parts is decreasing based on the comparison between the clearance calculation and the target clearance. If the sensor(s) processor  325  determines that the clearance between the case the rotating parts is not decreasing, then the program  1500  continues to block  1525  at which the sensor(s) processor  325  determines if there is exhaust gas temperature overshoot. If the sensor(s) processor  325  determines that the clearance between the case and the rotating parts is decreasing, then the program  1500  continues to block  1530  at which the example flow rate controller  330  transmits a flow rate control signal to the valve between the mixer and the case cooler. 
     At block  1525 , the sensor(s) processor  325  determines if there is exhaust gas temperature overshoot. In some examples, the sensor(s) processor  325  determines if there is exhaust gas temperature overshoot based on the engine conditions determined from the obtained flight condition data. For example, the sensor(s) processor  325  directly measurements an EGT sensors, which includes information about the exhaust gas temperature. If the sensor(s) processor  325  determines that there is exhaust gas temperature overshoot, then program  1500  continues to block  1530  (e.g., the HP turbine  118  case) at which the flow rate controller  330  transmits a flow rate control signal to the valve between the mixer and the case cooler. If the sensor(s) processor  325  determines that there is no exhaust gas temperature overshoot, then program  1500  returns to block  1510  at which the sensor(s) processor  325  obtains the sensor data. 
     At block  1530 , the flow rate controller  330  transmits a flow rate control signal to the valve  550  between the mixer  525  and the HPT case cooler/deflector  530  of  FIG. 5 . In some examples, the flow rate control signal causes the valve  550  to open and close to modulate/regulate the airflow rate between the mixer  525  and the HPT case cooler/deflector  530 . In some examples, the valve  550  is opened and closed in variable positions. For example, the valve  550  can be opened and closed into positions ranging from 0% to 100% to meet the target clearance. In some examples, if the difference between the calculated clearance and the target clearance is large, the flow rate control signal causes the valve  550  to open and close quickly to decrease the difference to zero (e.g., no difference between the calculate clearance and target clearance). In some examples, if the difference between the calculated clearance and the target clearance is small, the flow rate control signal causes the valve  550  to open and close slowly to decreases the difference to zero. In some examples, the controller  310  causes a lag time (e.g., the time for the controller  310  to transmit the flow rate control signal to the valve  550 ). In the illustrated example, the flow rate controller  330  transmits a flow rate control signal to the valve  550  that increases the airflow rate between the mixer  525  and the HPT case cooler/deflector  530 . The increase in airflow rate increases the amount of cooling air to the HPT case cooler/deflector  530 , which provides more cooling air to the ACC system to decrease the clearance in response to an increase in clearance between the case and the rotating parts or an EGT overshoot. 
     At block  1535 , the flow rate controller  330  transmits a flow rate control signal to the valve  560  between the HPT case cooler/deflector  530  and the case cooling (e.g., the LPT case cooler/deflector  540 ) of  FIG. 5 . In some examples, the flow rate control signal causes the valve  560  to open and close to modulate/regulate the airflow rate between the HPT case cooler/deflector  530  and the LPT case cooler/deflector  540 . In the illustrated example, the flow rate controller  330  transmits a flow rate control signal to the valve  550  that increases the airflow rate between the HPT case cooler/deflector  530  and the LPT case cooler/deflector  540 . The increase in airflow rate increases the amount of cooling air to the LPT case cooler/deflector  540 , which decreases the clearance in response to an increase in clearance between the case and the rotating parts or an EGT overshoot. 
     At block  1540 , the flow rate controller  330  transmits a flow rate control signal to the valve  555  between the mixer  525  and the rotating parts (e.g., the rotating parts cooler and clearance control  545 ) of  FIG. 5 . In some examples, the flow rate control signal causes the valve  555  to open and close to modulate/regulate the airflow rate between the mixer  525  and the rotating parts cooler and clearance control  545 . In the illustrated example, the flow rate controller  330  transmits a flow rate control signal to the valve  555  that decreases the airflow rate between the mixer  525  and the rotating parts cooler and clearance control  545 . The decrease in airflow rate decreases the amount of cooling air to the rotating parts cooler and clearance control  545 , which provides less cooling air (than the baseline) to the CCA system to decrease the clearance in response to an increase in clearance between the case and the rotating parts or an EGT overshoot. In some examples, the cooling air is provided to the CCA system when the EGT measured from the EGT sensors is over or near an EGT limit (e.g., an EGT overshoot). 
     At block  1545 , the example temperature controller  335  transmits a temperature control signal to the mixer  525 . In some examples, the temperature control signal causes the mixer  525  to adjust/modulate the temperature of the cooling air in the mixer  525 . In the illustrated example, the temperature controller  335  transmits a temperature control signal to the mixer  525  that decreases the temperature of the cooling air. The decrease in air temperature allows the cooling air to cool the components of the turbine engine faster, which can control clearance more effectively by cooling the case and the rotating parts in response to a change in clearance between the case and the rotating parts or an EGT overshoot. For example, applying cooling air to the case helps to decrease the clearance between the case and the rotating parts. In some examples, applying cooling air to the rotating parts (e.g., rotor) increases the clearance between the case and the rotating parts. Once the temperature controller  335  transmits the temperature control signal to the mixer  525 , program  1500  ends. In some examples, program  1500  is a continuous loop where once the temperature controller  335  transmits the temperature control signal to the mixer  525 , program  1500  returns to block  1510  at which the example sensor(s) processor  325  obtains the sensor data from the example engine sensor(s)  315 . 
       FIG. 16  is a block diagram of an example processor platform  1600  structured to execute the instructions of  FIGS. 14 and 15  to implement the example controller  310  of  FIG. 3 . The processor platform  1600  can be, for example, a server, a personal computer, a workstation, a self-learning machine (e.g., a neural network), a mobile device (e.g., a tablet such as an iPad), or other wearable device, or any other type of computing device. 
     The processor platform  1600  of the illustrated example includes a processor  1612 . The processor  1612  of the illustrated example is hardware. For example, the processor  1612  can be implemented by one or more integrated circuits, logic circuits, microprocessors, GPUs, DSPs, or controllers from any desired family or manufacturer. The hardware processor may be a semiconductor based (e.g., silicon based) device. In this example, the processor implements the example sensor(s) processor  325 , the example flow rate controller  330 , and the example temperature controller  335 . 
     The processor  1612  of the illustrated example includes a local memory  1613  (e.g., a cache). The processor  1612  of the illustrated example is in communication with a main memory including a volatile memory  1614  and a non-volatile memory  1616  via a bus  1618 . The volatile memory  1614  may be implemented by Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory (SDRAM), Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM), RAMBUS® Dynamic Random Access Memory (RDRAM®) and/or any other type of random access memory device. The non-volatile memory  1616  may be implemented by flash memory and/or any other desired type of memory device. Access to the main memory  1614 ,  1616  is controlled by a memory controller. 
     The processor platform  1600  of the illustrated example also includes an interface circuit  1620 . The interface circuit  1620  may be implemented by any type of interface standard, such as an Ethernet interface, a universal serial bus (USB), a Bluetooth® interface, a near field communication (NFC) interface, and/or a PCI express interface. 
     In the illustrated example, one or more input devices  1622  are connected to the interface circuit  1620 . The input device(s)  1622  permit(s) a user to enter data and/or commands into the processor  1612 .
