Abstract

See full text

A system for optimizing engine air-mass-flow intake of an aircraft includes a forward-facing airframe-inlet duct interoperably coupled to an inlet of an engine of the aircraft, an air-mass-flow bypass mechanism coupled to the forward-facing airframe-inlet duct and adjustable to allow a selected amount of air entering an inlet of the forward-facing airframe-inlet duct to bypass the inlet of the engine, and an air-pressure sensor arranged in the forward-facing airframe-inlet duct adjacent to the inlet of the engine. A measured value (“PT1”) from the air-pressure sensor is used to determine a degree to which the air-mass-flow bypass mechanism is to be opened.
