Two popular methods of cooling
air cooling and liquid cooling
Keeps the heat in
Insulation
ECS maintains a relative humidity to prevent discomforts such as
dryness of the eyes, nose, and throat
Filters are used to filter out
particulate matter, such as dust, pollen, and microorganisms, from the incoming air
Halon, often used in fire suppression systems, is commercially synthesized from a former anesthetic also known as
Chloroform
Optimal operating temperature ensures
reliable performance
Engine bleed air is
compressed air taken from the engine's compressor section
Pressurization is essential to the system because
it prevents moisture from entering the cabin through leaks or openings in the aircraft structure.
HEPA stands for
high-efficiency particulate absorbing
The three main types of smoke detectors are
