PAF_Herc Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Can somebody kindly tell me why the heat exchanger outlet has a set of jet nozzles? What purpose do they serve? Dash-1 says it ensures augmented cooling airflow over the entire heat exchanger. Cant understand how Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NATOPS1 Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 The jet pump works in conjunction with the water separator to induce the flow of water (by air movement- IE the jet pump) from the separator to the heat exchanger. It ensures the removed water comes into contact the heat exchanger and increase thermal transfer. it is not just for increased "airflow".

NATOPS1 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 After reading you post about the Flt station AC manual control I determined you have an early model aircraft and therefore gave you a partial answer to your question about the "jet pump". On the model aircraft you are inquiring about the jet pump we are discussing IS designed to increase airflow through the heat exchanger. The induced flow through the intake ensures a larger volume of air is drawn through the heat exchanger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
