First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of determining an overall performance of an air-conditioning system of an aircraft, the method comprising:
- transmitting data from a sensor operably coupled to at least one air-conditioning pack, while the aircraft is in a stable on-ground condition;
comparing the transmitted data to a predetermined threshold;
determining, with a controller, an overall performance of the air-conditioning system based on the comparing; and
providing an indication of the determined overall performance.

12. A method of determining overall performance of air-conditioning systems of multiple aircrafts, the method comprising:
-
transmitting, from an air-conditioning pack of an aircraft, data related to an outlet temperature of the air-conditioning pack; transmitting, from an air-conditioning pack of at least one other aircraft, data related to an outlet temperature of the air-conditioning pack of the at least one other aircraft; comparing, with a controller, the transmitted data related to the outlet temperatures from the aircraft and the at least one other aircraft; determining, with a controller, an overall performance of the air-conditioning systems of the aircrafts based on the comparing; and providing an indication of the determined overall performance of the air-conditioning systems of the aircrafts. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 17)
