US Patent 11473497 Engine bleed system with motorized compressor

An engine bleed control system for a gas turbine engine of an aircraft is provided. The engine bleed control system includes an engine bleed tap coupled to a fan-air source or a compressor source of a lower pressure compressor section before a highest pressure compressor section of the gas turbine engine and a motorized compressor in fluid communication with the engine bleed tap. The engine bleed control system also includes a controller operable to selectively drive the motorized compressor to boost a bleed air pressure as pressure augmented bleed air and control delivery of the pressure augmented bleed air to an aircraft use.
