Abstract
A compressor bleed air passageway includes a duct having an upstream section (48) which terminates in a baffle (44) and a downstream duct section (54) having a forward portion (56) which surrounds the baffle (44). Bleed air flow through openings (58) in the baffle wall (52). This reduces velocity of the bleed air stream at the duct discharge port to a value equal to or less than Mach 1.0. The baffle (44) has virtually no effect on a low-velocity, low-pressure air stream. The downstream duct section (54) may be perforated and surrounded by outer wall (64) to form sound-absorbing chambers (66).
