Abstract:
An environmental control system assembly for an aircraft includes a heat exchanger assembly and a plenum. The heat exchanger assembly includes a first heat exchanger in fluid communication with a source of bleed air, a second heat exchanger disposed adjacent to the first, a third heat exchanger disposed adjacent to the second, and an end sheet. The first heat exchanger includes a first endwall, a first inlet header, a first outlet header, and a first endcap located on the first outlet header. The third heat exchanger includes a third endwall, a third inlet header connected to the third endwall, a third outlet header, and a third endcap located on the third inlet header. The end sheet includes the first, second, and third endwalls. The plenum fluidly connects the first outlet header of the first heat exchanger to the third inlet header of the third heat exchanger.

Claim (Index 14):
An environmental control system comprising:\n a heat exchanger assembly comprising:\n a chiller heat exchanger comprising:\n a chiller endwall; \n a chiller inlet header mounted on the top of the chiller heat exchanger; \n a chiller outlet header mounted on the bottom of the chiller heat exchanger; and \n a chiller endcap attached and in fluid communication with the chiller inlet header; \n \n a fresh air heat exchanger mounted adjacent to the chiller heat exchanger, wherein the fresh air heat exchanger comprises:\n a fresh air endwall; \n a fresh air inlet header mounted on the top of the fresh air heat exchanger; and \n a fresh air outlet header mounted on the bottom of the fresh air heat exchanger; \n \n a bleed air heat exchanger mounted adjacent to the fresh air heat exchanger, wherein the bleed air heat exchanger comprises:\n a bleed air endwall; \n a bleed air inlet header mounted on the top of the bleed air heat exchanger; \n a bleed air outlet header mounted on the bottom of the bleed air heat exchanger; and \n a bleed air endcap attached and in fluid communication with the bleed air inlet header; \n \n an end sheet comprising the chiller, fresh air, and bleed air end walls; and a semi-circular plenum welded along its length to the end sheet, wherein the semi-circular plenum fluidly connects the bleed air outlet header to the chiller inlet header.
