Zusammenfassung:A gas turbine engine may include a turbomachine defining a core flow having a core mass flow rate therethrough during operation. A bleed assembly is provided to include a bleed flow machine and a machine load. The bleed flow machine is provided in fluid communication with the compressor section of the turbomachine and configured to drive the machine load. A machine outlet in fluid communication with the bleed assembly provides a bleed flow therethrough during operation of the gas turbine engine, the bleed flow defining a bleed mass flow rate. A compressor section of the turbomachine is configured to provide the bleed flow through the bleed flow machine and the machine outlet to an aircraft flow assembly, wherein the bleed mass flow rate is at least twelve percent (12%) of the core mass flow rate.
