An engine cooling system (200) for a rotorcraft (10) includes an engine (210) having an engine cooling circuit (202), a hydraulic pump (208) powered by the engine (210) to pump hydraulic fluid (206), and a hydraulic circuit (204) in fluid communication with the hydraulic pump (208) and the engine cooling circuit (202), the hydraulic circuit (204) including at least one hydraulic-powered component (224). The hydraulic pump (208) is adapted to pump the hydraulic fluid (206) through both the hydraulic circuit (204) and the engine cooling circuit (202), thereby cooling the engine (210).
