Zusammenfassung:An environmental control system (ECS) for an aircraft may include a mixing diffuser configured to admit a stream of cold air and a stream of hot air and a reheater-condenser fluidly coupled with an output end of the mixing diffuser. The mixing diffuser may include a diffuser cone with a plurality of holes configured to allow passage of hot air into the stream of cold air so that the cold air and the hot air are combined to produce a mixed airstream. The reheater-condenser may include mixing tabs configured to produce further mixing of the mixed airstream.
