INTERNAL ENVIRONMENTAL SIMULATOR FOR A MANMACHINE SYSTEM.

Abstract

Control, maintenance, repair and performance requirements for advanced life-support systems were investigated by laboratory evaluations of experimental water recovery, oxygen regeneration, and cabin gas conditioning models. This report: (1) reviews the design criteria (established in the preceeding Study Phase Report), (2) describes the system operation and test procedures, (3) discusses the test results, and (4) lists recommendations for an advanced, integrated life-support system. The three models were designed to support the physiological requirements for water, oxygen, and environmental control in a closed compartment containing a three-man crew on a two-week mission through a hostile external environment.
