Computer Modeling and Optimization of OBOGS with Contaminants.

Abstract

The ultimate goal of this research is to insure proper design of molecular sieve oxygen generation systems for the U.S. Army's in-flight, medivac, and field hospital use. Specifically the research involves further development of an OBOGS model to include the effects of contaminants in the feed air. This OBOGS model can be used to optimize and design OBOGS systems with respect to system parameters such as a cycle time and bed and valve dimensions.
