摘要:
An aircraft comprising a fuselage defining a longitudinal axis and an interior compartment. Along the axis, in cross-section perpendicular to the axis, the compartment is enclosed by a floor, sidewall and ceiling structure. The aircraft further comprises an environmental control system comprising a conduit system through which a pressurized fluid is supplied, at least one first terminal disposed inside the compartment and in fluid communication with the conduit system, and a selectively inflatable and deflatable partition element. The partition element comprises at least one second terminal and is constructed such that it is inflatable from a deflated condition into an inflated condition by establishing a fluid communication between the second terminal and the first terminal. In the inflated condition the partition element completely closes the cross-section of the compartment, thereby dividing it into two portions, and in the deflated condition collapses and at least partially unblocks the cross section.
