Abstract

A gas turbine engine comprises a turbomachine defining a core flow therethrough during operation. A flow tap is provided in fluid communication with the turbomachine, wherein the flow tap is configured to receive a portion of the core flow therethrough as a bleed flow. A bleed assembly includes a machine load, a bleed flow machine, and a bleed regulator. The bleed flow machine is disposed in fluid communication with the turbomachine through the flow tap, and is configured to drive the machine load. The bleed regulator is configured to regulate a bleed output provided to the bleed flow machine by controlling a capture rate of the bleed flow by the bleed flow machine.
