  • Systems and methods for insulation of aircraft cooling systems
    Patent number: 11097827
    Abstract: Provided are insulating apparatuses, and methods of operation, for thermal insulation and drainage of cooling system tubing. An example insulating apparatus comprises an elongated strip including a first end and a second end. A medial portion, a first edge, and a second edge, each run from the first end to the second end. The first and second edges curl around respective longitudinal axes toward the medial portion to form a first wrap portion with a first cavity defined by an interior surface of the first wrap portion, and a second wrap portion with a second cavity defined by an interior surface of the second wrap portion. A channel above the medial portion is defined by an exterior surface of each of the first and second wrap portions. The first and second cavities are interconnected with the channel through a first gap and a second gap, respectively.
