ABSTRACT:
To prevent icing in an auxiliary refrigerated air system utilized in jet aircraft for environmental control purposes, wherein high pressure, high temperature input air bleed from the engine compressor is boosted in pressure and temperature, cooled in a heat exchanger and expanded in a turbine to produce refrigerated output air flowing through an output duct, a portion of the input air is diverted to warm appropriate parts of the expansion turbine to prevent ice accretion thereto. To prevent icing of the output duct, input air is also diverted to warm the duct wall. Alternatively, the engine fuel line is coiled about the output duct in heat exchanging relation to warm the duct wall.
