Bleed Air versus Electric Power Off-takes from a Turbofan Gas Turbine over the Flight Cycle

Abstract

[Abstract] In this paper the performance of the gas turbine engines of a commercial passenger aircraft is evaluated for both bleed air off-take and electric power off-take. As these types of engine power off-takes are not directly comparable, an exergy analysis is used to establish the most efficient type of off-take. From this analysis appears that it is indeed more efficient to bleed air from the engine instead of generating the equivalent amount of exergy in terms of electric power. However, when also taking into account the performance of the largest pneumatic power consumer, the Environmental Control System (ECS) it appears that about 2% thrust specific fuel consumption can be saved, by using a MoreElectric ECS instead of a conventional bleed air powered ECS.
