Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0972945A2] A compressed gas generating unit with a compact layout has the engine and radial compressor in one line and parallel to the cylindrical gas cooler (3). The cooler has two end flanges (7) coolant pipes (6) and with the gas flow through the entire length. An outer cylindrical cover (11) extends over part of the length of the cooler to provide a position for one of the gas ports away from the end flange, i.e. the gas is ducted through the outer space between the port the end flange. This allows a close spacing between the gas ducts fitted between the compressor and the cooler. The outer cover can extend over the entire length of the cooler, with an internal bulkhead to split the gas flows and allows an even closer spacing of the gas connections.
