SUPERSONIC TRANSPORT DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM. PHASE III PROPOSAL. BOEING MODEL 2707. VOLUME II-10. SYSTEMS REPORT-PART A. ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROL. ELECTRIC. NAVIGATION AND COMMUNICATION,

Abstract

The air-conditioning system includes a cabin air source and associated cooling equipment, passenger cabin and flight deck air distribution and exhaust system, cabin temperature control, cabin pressure control, equipment and compartment conditioning, and instruments to monitor ozone levels. The adverse weather systems include ice and fog protection and rain removal for the flight deck windshields. Fog protection is provided for the movable-nose side windows. Ice protection is provided for the engine inlets and air data sensors. The oxygen system includes a gaseous oxygen system for the flight crew members and portable first-air oxygen units for the passenger cabin occupants and flight crew members. The electrical system comprises all electrical equipment required for generation, control, conversion, storage, and distribution of electrical power. It also includes electrical and electronic wiring and circuit protection devices between the distribution buses and the utilization loads and the airplane internal and external lights. Radio navigation and communication design and performance requirements have generally been well-established through action by airline industry study groups; e.g. RTCA, ATA, ARINC, and are therefore discussed briefly. Inertial Navigation and Weather Radar are development items, not yet fully defined, and are discussed in detail.
