Extract

In common with other pneumatic and electronic cabin pressure control installations the two new pneumatic systems discussed in this paper have been designed to control cabin pressure automatically by throttling the out-flow of the cabin conditioning air. For those unfamiliar with the subject Fig. 1 shows diagrammatically a typical modern military aircraft installation. Both the systems discussed should however be of particular technical interest warranting general description, as for the first time with this type of equipment low cost and robust integrated fluidic circuits have been extensively used in their design. Patents covering these have now been granted in the United Kingdom, the United States and other countries.
