Abstract
A variable resistance device for use in a duct of a high pressure air supply system employs a rotatable butterfly damper locatable in the air supply system having a closed and an open position for variably restricting airflow through the air supply system. The butterfly damper is provided with apertures which permit air to flow through the butterfly damper even when it is in a closed position. The apertures are sized to provide a maximum resistance value at a minimum air flow rate in a closed position, a minimum resistance value at a maximum air flow rate in a 70% open position, and a nearly linear relationship between an angular rotation position of the butterfly damper and resistance.
