Alternate lubrication mechanisms for vehicle bearings oil baffles and traps

A process for delivering a lubricant in a lubrication system comprising:

• mounting a shaft within a gas turbine engine housing of a gas turbine engine having a forward portion opposite an aft portion, the shaft having an axis extending from the forward portion to the aft portion;
• forming a bearing compartment housing within the gas turbine engine housing, the bearing compartment housing comprising an interior surface and an exterior surface, and the bearing compartment housing being configured to house at least one bearing configured to support the shaft;
• forming a lubricant trap on the interior surface of the bearing compartment housing;
• configuring the lubricant trap to contain at least one lubricant comprising a solid or semi-solid material;
• locating a first lubricant within a first lubricant trap at a first axial distance from the at least one bearing wherein the first lubricant is configured to release from the first lubricant trap responsive to a first temperature;
• locating a second lubricant within a second lubricant trap at a second axial distance from the at least one bearing, wherein the second lubricant is configured to release from the second lubricant trap responsive to a second temperature;
• lubricating the at least one bearing with the first lubricant at the first temperature;
• and
• lubricating the at least one bearing with the second lubricant at the second temperature.
