2. Bleed air - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bleed_air

   Additionally, bleed air is used to keep critical parts of the plane (such as the wing leading edges) ice-free. [6] Bleed air is used on many aircraft systems because it is easily available, reliable, and a potent source of power. For example, bleed air from an airplane engine is used to start the remaining engines.

3. Environmental control system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environmental_control_system

   Air bled from the engine fan is blown across the pre-cooler, located in the engine strut, and absorbs excess heat from the service bleed air. A fan air modulating valve (FAMV) varies the cooling airflow to control the final air temperature of the service bleed air. Notably, the Boeing 787 does not use bleed air to pressurize the cabin.

4. Motorcraft 2150 carburetor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motorcraft_2150_carburetor

   The 2150 improved on the 2100s design through the introduction of a variable air bleed system, which keeps the air to fuel mixture better balanced throughout the carburetor's full range of operation. The 2150 models from 1983 to 1986 were electronic feedback carburetors equipped with Ford's EEC-IV. [2]

5. Components of jet engines - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Components_of_jet_engines

   Low pressure (40–70 psi or 280–480 kPa), high volume air from the compressor section of the APU is bled off through a system of pipes to the engines where it is directed into the starting system. This bleed air is directed into a mechanism to start the engine turning and begin pulling in air. The starter is usually an air turbine type ...

6. Aircraft engine starting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_engine_starting

   An interesting feature of all three German jet engine designs that saw production of any kind before May 1945: the German BMW 003, Junkers Jumo 004 and Heinkel HeS 011 axial-flow turbojet engine designs was the starter system, which consisted of a Riedel 10 hp (7.5 kW) flat twin two-stroke air-cooled engine hidden in the intake, and essentially ...

7. Ice protection system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice_protection_system

   Bleed air systems are used by most large aircraft with jet engines or turboprops. Hot air is "bled" off one or more engines' compressor sections into tubes routed through wings, tail surfaces, and engine inlets. Spent air is exhausted through holes in the wings' undersides. A disadvantage of these systems is that supplying an adequate amount of ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lycoming_TIO-541

   The engine has a fuel injection system which meters fuel in proportion to the induction airflow. The engine has a displacement of 541.5 cubic inches (8.87 litres) and produces a maximum of 450 hp (336 kW) in its TIGO-541 version. The cylinders have air-cooled heads. [1] [2]
