Embodiments include an inlet particle separator system for a gas turbine engine. The inlet particle separator system includes an inertial particle separator that separates incoming air into a cleaned air flow and a scavenge flow. Embodiments may also include an ejector that provides a draw on a scavenge duct and entrains the scavenge flow into a charged flow, e.g., such as the output of a first stage fan. The ejector may have a variable output.
