摘要: An aircraft environmental control system (4) for controlling a temperature of a fluid, the control system (4) comprising: a temperature sensor (30) configured to measure a temperature of the fluid and to generate a signal, the first signal being indicative of the measured temperature; a control signal generator (52) configured to, dependent upon the first signal, generate a control signal for controlling the temperature of the fluid; and one or more processors (64) configured to, responsive to determining that the measured temperature oscillates about a central value, decrease a gain of the control signal generator (52).

摘要: A maintenance system is provided for an environmental conditioning element of an environmental control system of a vehicle. The maintenance system includes a data acquisition module configured to determine an ambient temperature, an altitude of the vehicle, and a measured ECS compressor temperature; a fouling module coupled to receive the ambient temperature, the altitude, and the measured ECS compressor temperature from the data acquisition module and configured to generate a fouling condition of the environmental conditioning element based on at least the ambient temperature, the altitude, and the measured ECS compressor temperature; and a reporting module coupled to receive the fouling condition from the fouling module and configured to generate a report for a user that includes the fouling condition.

摘要: A system, which includes a plurality of heat exchangers and a compressing device, is configured to prepare in parallel a medium bled from a low-pressure location of an engine and flowing through a plurality of heat exchangers into a chamber. The compressing device is in communication with the plurality of heat exchangers and regulates a pressure of the medium flowing through the plurality of heat exchangers. The compressing device is bypassed based on the preparing in parallel the medium for the chamber, which in turn enables the compressing device to windmill. Therefore, the system employs at least one mechanism to prevent components of the compressing device from windmilling.

摘要: A computer-implemented method, environmental control system (ECS) for an aircraft, and system are provided. Air temperatures at the inlet and outlet of a ram air duct for an ECS are measured. Also, air temperatures at outlets from one or more heat exchangers arranged in the ram air duct are measured. The temperatures are typically measured when the aircraft is on the ground and when aircraft engines supplying air to the ECS are operating at idle. Shortly thereafter, the heat exchangers are manually inspected to determine a level of actual fouling (e.g., dirt, dust, or other debris accumulated on heat exchanger surfaces). A supervised machine learning or other statistical analysis is performed on the measured temperatures and associated actual fouling levels to develop a model that predicts an amount of heat exchanger fouling, based on the temperature measurements. An alert can be output if the predicted fouling exceeds a fouling threshold.
