摘要:
The invention concerns a shape memory alloy-actuated flow controller (600), comprising: a rotatable flap having a shaft (620) along an axis about which said rotatable flap rotates; and an actuator disposed within said shaft (620) and configured to generate a force causing said rotatable flap to rotate, said actuator comprising a shape memory alloy ("SMA") actuator including a number of SMA elements.
