Abstract: A fuel tank inerting system includes a bleed air inlet, a bleed air conditioning system, an air separation module, a nitrogen-enriched air conditioning system, a nitrogen-enriched air outlet, and a controller. The bleed air conditioning system is connected to the bleed air inlet and is configured to cool bleed air. The air separation module is connected to the bleed air conditioning system and is configured to produce nitrogen-enriched air. The nitrogen-enriched air conditioning system is connected to the air separation module and is configured to cool nitrogen-enriched air. The controller controls nitrogen-enriched air temperature and nitrogen-enriched air flow rate at the nitrogen-enriched air outlet.

Abstract: Environmental control system bleed air is cooled by a heat exchanger. A fan pulls ambient air from a ram inlet duct across the at least heat exchanger and to an outlet. An air cycle machine drives the fan. The bleed air passes downstream of the at least heat exchanger to a compressor, and then drives a first stage turbine. The first stage turbine has an outlet communicating with a condenser, and then a second stage turbine. An icing control system taps hot air downstream of the compressor. An add heat valve is selectively moveable between a first position blocking flow from the tap passage. A second position where it passes air from the tap passage to the condenser inlet, and to a point downstream of the condenser and to the second stage turbine. In a third position, the valve only communicates air from the tap passage into the condenser.
