A performance analysis of power extraction from a low bypass ratio mixed flow turbofan engine has been performed. Power extraction from the high-pressure and low-pressure shaft was evaluated at key parts of a fighter aircraft mission. It is shown how the engine net thrust and thrust specific fuel consumption depend on the mission definition, engine control limiters and the use of the afterburner.
