Bleed system for a low-pressure compressor of a turbomachine
View Patent ↗The bypass turbomachine comprises, between a primary flowpath ( 2 ) and a secondary flowpath ( 3 ), a structural intermediate casing ( 14 ). A bleed passage ( 29 ) allows the diversion of a portion of the gas stream toward the secondary flowpath ( 3 ), downstream of support arms ( 18 ) situated at the periphery of the intermediate casing. A bleed opening ( 28 ) emerges upstream of the support arms ( 18 ). A slide valve ( 22 ) slides between three positions, namely a closed position in which the slide valve ( 22 ) completely blocks off the bleed passage and opening, an intermediate position in which the bleed opening ( 28 ) emerging upstream of the support arms ( 18 ) is blocked off, while the bleed passage ( 29 ) for diverting a portion of the gas stream downstream of the support arms ( 18 ) is open, and an open position in which the bleed opening ( 28 ) emerging upstream of the support arms ( 18 ) and the bleed passage ( 29 ) emerging downstream of the support arms are both open.
1. A bypass turbomachine, in particular a bypass jet engine of an aircraft, comprising, between a primary flowpath and a secondary flowpath, a structural intermediate casing arranged axially between a low-pressure compressor and a high-pressure compressor, and a bleed passage for diverting a portion of the gas stream supplied by the low-pressure compressor toward the secondary flowpath, downstream of support arms situated at the periphery of the intermediate casing, wherein the turbomachine comprises a bleed opening emerging upstream of the support arms and a slide valve occupying three positions, namely a closed position in which the slide valve completely blocks off the bleed passage and opening, an intermediate position in which the bleed opening emerging upstream of the support arms is blocked off, while the bleed passage for diverting a portion of the gas stream downstream of the support arms is open, and an open position in which the bleed opening emerging upstream of the support arms and the bleed passage emerging downstream of the support arms are both open.
2. The turbomachine as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the slide valve comprises a flange which blocks off the bleed opening when the slide valve is in the intermediate position.
3. The turbomachine as claimed in claim 1 , which comprises a case ring on which the slide valve slides.
4. The turbomachine as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the slide valve is equipped with elastomeric seals or with brush seals in order to provide sealing between the slide valve and the primary flowpath.
5. A bleed system for a low-pressure compressor forming part of a turbomachine as claimed in claim 1 .
