An aircraft jet propulsion system may comprise a thermoelectric cooler array coupled to a portion thereof, wherein the TEC array converts electrical energy to heat energy to create a temperature gradient and cools a turbine case using the temperature difference of the TEC array. The system may include a controller configured to control an input power provided to each TEC of the array of TECs, such that the array of TECs facilitates controlled cooling of the aircraft jet propulsion system in response to the input power provided to each TEC of the array of TECs. The TEC array may be powered by an alternator or by a thermoelectric generator.
