Abstract: A system, which includes a plurality of heat exchangers and a compressing device, is configured to prepare in parallel a medium bled from a low-pressure location of an engine and flowing through a plurality of heat exchangers into a chamber. The compressing device is in communication with the plurality of heat exchangers and regulates a pressure of the medium flowing through the plurality of heat exchangers. The compressing device is bypassed based on the preparing in parallel the medium for the chamber, which in turn enables the compressing device to windmill. Therefore, the system employs at least one mechanism to prevent components of the compressing device from windmilling.

Abstract translation: 包括多个热交换器和压缩装置的系统构造成平行地准备从发动机的低压位置排出的介质并且流过多个热交换器进入腔室。 压缩装置与多个热交换器连通，并且调节流过多个热交换器的介质的压力。 基于平行准备用于腔室的介质，压缩装置被旁路，这又使得压缩装置能够进入风车。 因此，该系统采用至少一种机构来防止压缩装置的部件被风力发电。

Abstract: An airplane is provided. The airplane includes a first medium, a second medium, and an air conditioning. The air conditioning system includes a first turbine, a compressor, and a mixing point. The compressor is located upstream of the turbine in a flow path of the first medium. The mixing point is a location at which the first medium mixes with the second medium. The mixing point is downstream of the compressor and upstream of the turbine.

Abstract: A system that comprises a nozzle arrangement is provided. The nozzle arrangement includes at least one nozzle configured to supply a medium at a nozzle flow rate to a fan of an air cycle machine. The nozzle flow rate provides a pneumatic power assist or a power augmentation to a fan of an air cycle machine. The power augmentation, in accordance with the nozzle flow rate, reduces a need for a flow across a turbine of the air cycle machine.
