"let off steam" isn't labelled fig., and it's often used to refer to this sort of thing:
The kids need to run outside and let off steam.
... which is not 吐气, I think.

LA ~ 吐出悶氣;抒發委屈、壓抑的情緒。
Diff:
- 吐氣 吐气 [tu3 qi4] /to exhale/to blow off steam/(phonetics) aspirated/
+ 吐氣 吐气 [[tu3qi4]] /to exhale; to breathe out/(fig.) to let out pent-up feelings; to vent suppressed emotions/(linguistics) to aspirate/
