Abstract: An on-board inert gas generating system includes a flow control valve (28) modulated according to changes in ambient conditions to minimize changes to oxygen content within a fuel tank (18). The quality of the nitrogen-enriched air stream that is provided by the air separation module (12) varies in response to flow. Higher flow rates through the air separation module (12) removes less oxygen relative to low flow rates. The amount of flow through the air separation module (12) that produces the least amount of oxygen within the fuel tank (18) is determined for an ambient pressure and provided by modulating the flow control valve (28).

Abstract: The present invention achieves downsizing of a first assembly in a camera equipped with a large-screen display section, and provides a camera capable of improving operability and gripability during photography and image playback. When performing photography using a digital camera 10, a second assembly 12 is opened to set the camera to a photography mode. As a result, main power is automatically turned on, and a photography button 28 and other photography operation members as well as a photographic lens 34, until then hidden by the second assembly 12, will be exposed to enable photography operations. When using the digital camera 10 as an image playback device, the second assembly 12 is first closed and a power switch 36 is turned on. This automatically switches the mode from the photography mode to the image playback mode. Subsequently, by operating image playback operation members such as an image playback start button 38, images stored in a memory 58 or a storage section 60 are sequentially read out and displayed on a liquid crystal monitor 18.
