METHOD FOR DIAGNOSING A FAULT IN AN AIR-CONDITIONING PACK OF AN AIRCRAFT
First Claim
1. A method of diagnosing a fault in an air-conditioning pack of an aircraft where the air-conditioning pack includes one or more sensors outputting data related to air-conditioning pack temperature, air-conditioning pack pressure, or air-conditioning pack valve position, the method comprising:
- transmitting data from at least one of the sensors operably coupled to the air-conditioning pack during one of a pre-flight, a post-flight, or a longest cruise;
comparing the transmitted data to a predetermined threshold;
diagnosing, by a controller, a fault in the air-conditioning pack based on the comparison; and
providing an indication of the diagnosed fault.
