    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a flow control actuator that can be housed in an airfoil section which is relatively narrow in depth and continuously takes out a flow from a pressurized fluid source.SOLUTION: The flow control actuator 10 for a body exposed to a fluid flow includes first and second flow surfaces 14, 16 mutually spaced apart to define a longitudinal gap 20 therebetween. A longitudinal control element is placed in or adjacent to the gap, has an outwardly arcuate surface, defines a first slot 24 between the control element and the first flow surface, and defines a second slot 26 between the control element and the second flow surface. The control element 22 is adapted to be movable so as to allow the first and second slots to be generally proportionally adjusted in width. A flow of pressurized flow control fluid passes out of a plenum chamber 30 through one or both of the slots 24, 26 and is deflected around the arcuate surface by the Coanda effect.

    Abstract: A sensor device for sensing air flow speed at the exterior of an aircraft, comprising a substrate having an upper side on which is mounted a diaphragm over an aperture or recess in the substrate, the diaphragm being thermally and electrically insulative, and mounting on its upper surface a heating element comprising a layer of resistive material, and wherein electrical connections to the heating element are buried in the diaphragm and/or the substrate, and provide electrical terminals at the lower side of the substrate. The heating element is exposed to the environment, but the remaining electrical parts of the device are not exposed. Portions of a conductive substrate may be cut or etched away to define a conductive pillar. Signals may be transmitted through the conductive pillar from one surface carrying the sensor element to the other surface carrying contact pads.

    Abstract: A particle separator stage in a particle separator includes an inflow passage (30) of generally annular, axially facing form. In other embodiments, an asymmetric geometry is disclosed in which the major flow is taken from one side only. These features combine to allow compact, multi-stage separators to be produced. Also an arrangement is disclosed in which the flow rate at a location within the separator stage is measured and used to control the flow rate there or elsewhere.

    Abstract: In order to discriminate between laminar flow and turbulent flow states, andto provide an indication, e.g.to a pilot of an aircraft of air flow over an aircraft wing, a sensor mounted on the wing provides an analogue signal of airflow, and an intermittency value of the analogue signal is derived in analogue circuitry including an AC coupling of the signal to an integrator for integrating the signal for a preset time. The integrated value is compared with a threshold value to indicate whether the intermittency represents quiet laminar flow or noisy turbulent flow.
