Abstract

See full text

A bleed air system for an aircraft has a gas turbine engine and operating method. The system includes an environmental control system (ECS) for providing cabin airflow to the aircraft, including operating modes such as first and second air cycle machine operating modes and heat exchanger operating modes. The ECS includes first, second and third bleed ports each configured to provide engine bleed air from gas turbine engine compressors to the ECS. The ECS includes a bleed air system sensor arrangement configured to sense one or more bleed air system conditions, an environmental control system controller that selects an environmental control system operating mode that provides required cabin air flow and temperature at an optimal specific fuel consumption of the gas turbine engine at the sensed system conditions, and a bleed port valve controller which determines an operating pressure required to operate the environmental control system in the selected mode.
