US Patent 12085027 Compressor bleed for gas turbine engine

A gas turbine engine includes a turbomachine defining a core flowpath extending through a first compressor and a second compressor, wherein a first compressor frame defines a compressor bypass passage extending from the core flowpath at the first compressor frame; and a forward compressor frame positioned between the first compressor and the second compressor, wherein the forward compressor frame defines at least in part a second portion of the core flowpath at a location downstream of the first portion of the core flowpath, wherein the forward compressor frame defines a compressor bleed passage extending from the core flowpath at a location downstream of the first compressor and upstream of the second compressor to egress a flow of air away from the core flowpath.
