**Effects of Power Extraction on Turbofan Compressor and Turbine Maps** The two diagrams below show the effects of shaft power extraction (*shaft power offtake* / *shaft power off-take* for the propulsion of accessories such as fuel-/hydraulic-/oil-pumps, generators etc.) on a turbofan engine at a flight altitude of $H = 11km$ and a speed of $Ma = 0.8$, calculated with [GasTurb 12][1]: [![Effects of Power Extraction on Turbofan Compressor and Turbine Maps][2]][2] **Effects of Power Extraction on the Operating Line (Blue)** - Why are the operating lines (blue) of both the compressor and turbine shifted to the left towards the surge line? - In particular, why does the non-dimensional corrected mass flow decrease, while the pressure ratio stays approximately constant? - The same question from a different angle: Why does the pressure ratio not decrease at a constant mass flow? *It seems logical that the non-dimensional corrected relative spool speed decreases, since power is extracted. However, I would assume that the decrease in spool speed would entail a decreasing pressure ratio for the same reason, while the mass flow would stay constant - which is apparently false.* [1]: http://www.gasturb.de/ [2]: https://i.sstatic.net/FMnAg.png
