Abstract:
Fuel tank inerting systems and methods for aircraft are provided. The systems include a fuel tank, a first reactant source fluidly connected to the fuel tank, the first source arranged to receive fuel from the fuel tank, a second reactant source, a catalytic reactor arranged to receive a first reactant from the first source and a second reactant from the second source to generate an inert gas that is supplied to the fuel tank to fill a ullage space of the fuel tank, and a back pressure flow restrictor positioned within or along a fuel tank supply line and downstream of the catalytic reactor, the back pressure flow restrictor arranged to maintain high-pressure operation of the catalytic reactor.

Claim (Index 18):
The method of  claim 11 , further comprising recycling a portion of the inert gas and supplying the recycled portion to the catalytic reactor.
