Abstract

Bleed valve assemblies in a gas turbine engine are disclosed herein. A bleed valve assembly in a low pressure compressor may include a bleed valve and a resonator chamber. A manifold may allow passage of air from a bleed duct into the resonator chamber. The resonator chamber may alter resonation properties of the bleed duct in order to prevent damage to components in the low pressure compressor.
