A system for asymmetric flow extraction is described and claimed, the system comprising a flow path, a bleed slot in the flow path, a bleed cavity for receiving at least a portion of the fluid extracted from the flow path and a bleed passage in flow communication with the bleed slot and the bleed cavity wherein the bleed passage has at least one deflector having a shape such that the width of the bleed passage cross section varies in a direction normal to the direction of fluid flow in the bleed passage. In another embodiment, the deflector has an aerodynamic surface having a shape such that the flow passage between the aerodynamic surface and a surface located away from it has a cross sectional shape that is non-axisymmetric. In another embodiment, the bleed passage comprises an assembly of a plurality deflectors, arranged circumferentially. |
