Abstract (en)

A bleed valve 110 is in fluid communication with the compressor fluid flow path and the bypass fluid flow path 112 whereby a piston 126 extends radially of the valve 110 and includes a piston head 134 radially remote from the compressor fluid flow path. A pneumatic chamber 132 surrounds a portion of the piston head 134, and air from a source downstream of the impeller is introduced into the chamber. The piston including a valving member 136 and a rigid sleeve 130 connecting the piston head 134 to the valving means opens or closes the communication between the compressor flow path and the bypass flow path 112. A precompressed spring 144 is associated with the piston to normally urge the piston 120 radially outwardly relative to the compressor fluid flow path to a valve open position, and when the pneumatic pressure in the chamber surrounding the piston head overcomes the precompressed spring, the valve is closed. <IMAGE>
