Zusammenfassung:A maintenance system is provided for an environmental conditioning element of an environmental control system of a vehicle. The maintenance system includes a data acquisition module configured to determine an ambient temperature, an altitude of the vehicle, and a measured ECS compressor temperature; a fouling module coupled to receive the ambient temperature, the altitude, and the measured ECS compressor temperature from the data acquisition module and configured to generate a fouling condition of the environmental conditioning element based on at least the ambient temperature, the altitude, and the measured ECS compressor temperature; and a reporting module coupled to receive the fouling condition from the fouling module and configured to generate a report for a user that includes the fouling condition.
