TURBINE ENGINE EJECTOR THROAT CONTROL
An apparatus and method for providing a pressurized air supply to a balance piston assembly to balance an axial load on a gas turbine engine compressor. The pressurized air supply can be supplied by mixing valve mixing a primary and secondary pressure bleed air supply relative to feedback received from the balance piston assembly to maintain a predetermined pressure at the balance piston assembly.
