SR20 Airplane and Systems Description
P/N 11934-004 7-57
Environmental System
Standard cabin heating and ventilation is accomplished by supplying
conditioned air from the heat exchanger for heating and windshield
defrost and fresh outside air for ventilation. The environmental system
consists of a fresh air inlet in the lower RH cowl, a heat exchanger
around the RH engine exhaust muffler, an air mixing chamber, air
ducting for distribution, a distribution manifold, a windshield diffuser,
and crew and passenger air vents. An optional 3-speed blower fan is
available to supplement airflow when ram air may be inadequate such
as during ground operation.
28 VDC for Environmental System Control Panel operation is supplied
through the 5-amp CABIN AIR CONTROL breaker on A/C BUS 2.
The optional Blower Fan is powered by 28 VDC supplied through a 15-
amp CABIN FAN breaker on A/C BUS 2.
• Note •
To facilitate faster cabin cooling, prior to engine start leave the
cabin doors open for a short time to allow hot air to escape.
Cooling
Cabin cooling is provided by ram air admitted through the NACA inlet
on the RH lower cowl to the fresh air valve, mounted to the forward
side of the firewall. When the fresh air valve is open, the air flows into
the mixing chamber mounted to the forward side of the firewall. When
the fresh air valve is closed, the cooled air exits into the engine
compartment and is exhausted overboard with the engine cooling
airflow.
Heating
For cabin heating, fresh air enters the upper RH cowl inlet, flows
through the upper cowl, and is ducted to a heat exchanger
surrounding the RH engine exhaust muffler. The heated air is then
routed to the hot air valve, mounted to the forward side of the firewall,
which controls entry of hot air into the cabin distribution system. When
the valve is open, the air flows into the cabin mixing chamber. When
the valve is closed, the heated air exits into the engine compartment
and is exhausted overboard with the engine cooling airflow.
