Abstract:
Objective To assess the performance of onboard oxygen generating and supplying system. Methods A model of a person and 8 volunteers in hypobaric chamber and rapid decompression chamber underwent the tests of producing oxygen ability of the oxygen concentrator of board oxygen generating system normal performance tests on oxygen supply at 0~8 000m, performance tests at cruising altitude for longrange, warning performance tests, secondary oxygen switch tests, positive pressure oxygen performance tests and rapid decompression performance tests. Results All the ability of producing and supply of oxygen, and the normal and the emergency performance of onboard oxygen generating system could fulfill the system physiological requirements. Conclusion On board oxygen generating and supplying system could meet pilots normal and emergeney needs when pilots aviate for long range in high altitude.
