    Jet engine oil systems have evolved from total loss systems to dry-sump re-circulating systems where oil is reused. A typical jet engine oil system features: 1) An oil pump that pressurizes oil from a tank and distributes it to bearing chambers in the front, center, and rear of the engine. 2) Oil coolers, multiple chip detectors (MCDs), and a scavenge pump that returns oil to the tank after it lubricates the bearings. 3) An air sealing system that uses pressurized air to prevent oil loss and scavenges oil/air mixtures away from the bearings and to the tank.
