2. Environmental control system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environmental_control_system

   The primary component for the functioning of the cold air unit (CAU) is the Air Cycle Machine (ACM) cooling device. Some aircraft, including early Boeing 707 aircraft, used vapor-compression refrigeration like that used in home air conditioners. An ACM uses no Freon: the air itself is the refrigerant. The ACM is preferred over vapor cycle ...

   The company's first major product was an oil cooler for military aircraft. Garrett designed and produced oil coolers for the Douglas DB-7. [9] Boeing's B-17 bombers, credited with substantially tipping the air war in America's and Great Britain's favor over Europe and the Pacific, were outfitted with Garrett intercoolers, as was the B-25.

   Backed by the financial and political support of the prominent Taft family and future Ohio senator Robert A. Taft who was one of the firm's directors, Aeronca became the first American company to build a commercially successful general aviation aircraft. [5] The corporation changed its name to Aeronca Aircraft Corporation in 1941. [6]

6. Cabin pressurization - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cabin_pressurization

   The part of the bleed air that is directed to the ECS is then expanded to bring it to cabin pressure, which cools it. A final, suitable temperature is then achieved by adding back heat from the hot compressed air via a heat exchanger and air cycle machine known as a PAC (Pressurization and Air Conditioning) system. In some larger airliners, hot ...

8. Air cycle machine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_cycle_machine

   This compression heats the air (the maximum air temperature at this point is about 250 °C) and it is sent to the secondary heat exchanger, which again uses outside air as the coolant. The pre-cooling through the first heat exchanger increases the efficiency of the ACM because it lowers the temperature of the air entering the compressor, so ...

   Then, in 1981, Midland-Ross acquired the Mansfield Aircraft Products Company and made it a subsidiary of what was by then the Grimes Division. [9] The division was restructured in 1982, with it being split into Grimes Galley Products, Grimes Lighting Products, and Grimes EL Products. [10] The Grimes Galley unit closed two years later. [11]
