Research abstract
The proposed Phase II program will develop and demonstrate a production-representative prototype of a flexible and efficient cooling system (FECS) for helicopters and other aircraft. FECS can be used to cool lasers, electronics or other devices in slow or fast-moving aircraft that are operating in high ambient temperatures. FECS utilizes a modular approach that allows it to be quickly and easily modified for various payloads. FECS is a vapor cycle system that utilizes state of the art components to provide the required cooling in the most energy efficient manner possible. It also incorporates an adaptive control system that allows it to adjust the mode of operation to maximize efficiency.
