FLIGHT 6 MARCH 1559 This business of cooling modern aircraft, missiles and equipment (to say nothing of passengers and aircrew) has been getting more and more difficult and complicated. Or was until B.O.A.E. introduced their system of evaporative cooling. AH that happens is that a liquid gas is expanded through a heat exchanger and eventually vaporized. The heat exchange involved in vaporising a liquid gas and raising the temperature to ambient conditions is very large —and enables high cooling loads to be met with a minimum of weight. The simplicity of this B.O.A.E. system makes it very flexible. It can be adapted for aircraft, missiles, individual equipment installations—and even single flying suits, merely by varying the size of the liquid container and the flow rate. In fact if anyone has a wrist watch that runs too hot, we may be able to help. ; British Oxygen Aro Equipment THE PINNACLES • HARLOW • ESSEX J •*: British Oxygen Aro Equipment combines the resources of the British Oxygen group of companies and the Aro Equipment Corporation of Ohio
