Title: ERGONOMICS OF AIRCREW RESPIRATORY APPARATUS.
Authors: BOLTON, C. B.1
Source: Annals of Occupational Hygiene. 01/01/1975, Vol. 18 Issue 1, p83-88. 6p.
Abstract: Current work on aircrew oxygen breathing systems at the Royal Aircraft Establishment, Farnborough, is described, and the basic requirements of aircrew breathing systems for use at altitudes up to 60 000 ft are outlined. Although high altitude military aircraft employ pressure cabins, the breathing system must be designed to provide adequate protection for the aircrew in case of pressure cabin failure due to accident or enemy action. Typical demand regulator breathing systems are outlined, and the way in which the oxygen regulator is required to change its mode of operation with increasing altitude is described. Problems of flow instability encountered with very sensitive regulators are mentioned and their causes listed. Development directed towards reducing the breathing effort required of aircrew continues. Advances in mask and helmet design are mentioned and reference made to anthropometric techniques developed to obtain data on which to design both helmets and masks. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
