ABSTRACT:
A turbofan flow delivery system includes a fan case housing a fan. Flow exit guide vanes are arranged downstream from the fan and extend radially inwardly from the fan case toward a bypass flow path. A supply passage includes an opening provided in the fan case between the fan and flow exit guide vanes configured to selectively provide pressurized air to a component using air from the bypass flow path. Swirling air from the bypass flow path enters the supply passage and is converted to a static pressure.
