From which part of the engine is bleed air taken?

Bleed air is primarily sourced from the compressor section of a jet engine. The compressor is responsible for increasing the pressure of the incoming air for efficient combustion in the engine. During this process, some of the compressed air is extracted as bleed air to serve various functions, such as cabin pressurization, engine starter systems, and anti-ice systems.

Taking bleed air from the compressor section allows the engine to maintain optimal performance and safety while utilizing the high-pressure air that is readily available after compression. This makes the compressor section the critical location for extracting bleed air, as it is where the air has already been pressurized, making it effective for various system needs in the aircraft.
