    Abstract: An environmental control system of an aircraft includes a ram air circuit including a ram air shell having a plurality of heat exchangers positioned therein, the plurality of heat exchangers including a first heat exchanger, a second heat exchanger, and a third heat exchanger. The ram air circuit is configured and arranged so that a first medium received at the first heat exchanger passes through the first heat exchanger and then through the third heat exchanger and so that a second medium received at the second heat exchanger passes through the second heat exchanger. A compressing device is arranged in fluid communication with the ram air circuit.

    Abstract: A bleed valve control system for mounting to a support structure adjacent to a fan air plenum within an aircraft includes a bleed valve module, a pneumatic valve controller, and a fan air duct. The bleed valve module includes a pipe, a plurality of bleed valves connected to the pipe, and a plurality of pneumatic actuators connected to the bleed valves. The pneumatic valve controller includes a plurality of electrical control elements and a cooling shroud. The cooling shroud is attached to the pipe and at least partially surrounds the plurality of electrical control elements. The fan air duct connects the cooling shroud to the fan air plenum such that fan air flows through the cooling shroud to cool the plurality of electrical control elements.
