Hardware scaleup procedures for P/C life support systems
This paper compares scaleup correlations developed at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory and at the Langley Research Center for various life-support hardware to estimate mass, volume, and power-consumption values as a function of feed or product-mass flow rates. The scaleup correlations are provided for a few selected advanced life-support technologies developed for the Space Station Freedom. In addition, correlation-validity limits and sources of data on various life-support hardware are also discussed.
