GENERAL - SYSTEM PRESENTATION

The air conditioning system maintains the air in the


pressurized fuselage zones at the correct levels of
temperature, freshness and pressure

INTRODUCTION

Air supply comes from the pneumatic system.


Then, air is regulated in temperature by the
temperature regulation sub-system.
Proper ventilation of the avionics equipment is
ensured by the avionics ventilation sub-system.
The pressurization sub-system ensures a cabin altitude
compatible with crew and passenger comfort.

PRESENTATION

Bleed air coming from the pneumatic system is


controlled in flow before reaching two air conditioning
packs which ensure basic temperature regulation.
Air delivered by the packs is mixed with recirculated
air from the cabin zones.
Fine temperature adjustment of air distributed in the
pressurized zones is obtained by controlling the amount
of hot air added to the air coming from the mixer unit.
Correct pressurization is obtained by controlling the
conditioned air discharge through one outflow valve.

ZONE TEMPERATURE CONTROL - SYSTEM PRESENTATION

TEMPERATURE REGULATION

The temperature regulation is automatic and controlled


by the corresponding pack controller which in turn is
controlled by the zone controller. This optimizes the
temperature regulation.
Each zone and pack controller consists of one primary
channel and one electrically independent secondary
channel respectively called primary and secondary
computers. The secondary computer acts as a back up
in case of failure of the primary computer.

PACK CONTROLLERS

Each pack controller provides:


- basic temperature regulation of its associated
pack in accordance with the demand from the
zone controller.
- and flow control and monitoring of its
associated pack in accordance with the flow
control demand from the zone controller.

ZONE CONTROLLER

The zone controller generates signals to the pack


controller for basic temperature regulation and flow
control optimization.
TMUAIR109-T02 LEVEL 1

It optimizes the temperature regulation by means of


trim air valves to obtain the selected ambient
temperature in the related zone.
The lowest zone temperature demand is used by the Zone
UF90100

the required outlet temperature of both packs.

PRESSURIZATION - SYSTEM DESIGN PHILOSOPHY

GENERAL

The pressurization system ensures a cabin altitude


safe and compatible with crew and passenger comfort.
Pressurization is performed by controlling the amount
of air discharged overboard through one outflow valve.

DESIGN PHILOSOPHY

The system has two identical and independent automatic


controllers.
Only one controller operates at a time, the other is
in active stand-by.
In normal condition, the system operation is fully
automatic.
The automatic cabin pressure control operation is
dependent on programmed control laws and
information from FMGCs and ADIRUs.
Manual mode permits full pressurization control in
case of failure of both automatic systems.
The cabin altitude can be manually controlled by
operating the outflow valve in manual mode.
Two safety valves are installed on the aft pressure
bulkhead to prevent excessive positive and negative
differential pressure.
The two safety valves are installed above the aircraft
floatation line.

GENERAL VENTILATION - SYSTEM DESIGN PHILOSOPHY

AVIONICS

The avionics ventilation system ensures a proper


ventilation of the electrical equipment. Air is taken
from different sources depending on the aircraft
configuration and ambient conditions.
Ventilation air is blown to the equipments by a blower
fan and extracted by an extraction fan.

LAV & GALLEYS

The lavatory and galleys ventilation system is used


to remove unpleasant odors before they enter the cabin.
Ventilation air is supplied from cabin distribution
ducts and discharged overboard by an extraction fan.

CARGO (Option)

The FWD & AFT cargo compartments are ventilated by


cabin ambient air coming from the cabin zones through
openings in the cabin floor behind the sidewall panels.
The FWD & AFT cargo compartments are ventilated by
means of an extraction fan or by differential pressure.
Note that the ventilation system is optional and
independent for each compartment.

CONTROLLERS
TMUVEN301-T01 LEVEL 1

The avionics equipment ventilation computer (A.E.V.C)
