231 - ATPL Question Bank in English - For a gas turbine operating at the same thrust and ambient conditions, what is the normal effect on exhaust gas temperature (EGT) of increasing compressor bleed demand, for example by supplying additional air-conditioning or anti-ice flow?

Question 231 - Aircraft General Knowledge - Airframe, Systems, Powerplant - ATPL - Airline Transport Pilot Licence

EGT remains unchanged because compressor bleed demand cannot affect it
EGT decreases as additional compressor air is extracted
EGT depends only on outside-air temperature and is independent of bleed demand
EGT increases to produce the same thrust
