Title:
ONBOARD INERT GAS GENERATION SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2019069770
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
To provide an onboard inert gas generation system for generation of inert gas on board an aircraft to facilitate inerting of fuel tanks and other areas on board the aircraft.SOLUTION: An onboard inert gas generation system for an aircraft receives air from a relatively low pressure source such as low pressure engine bleed air or ram air, and passes it to a positive displacement compressor (40) to increase a pressure of the air to be suitable for supply to an air separation module (48). The positive displacement compressor (40) comprises a high pressure ratio single stage supercharger with internal cooling.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 6
