A fastener free joining system includes a first tubular shell component having a first plurality of teeth defined in a first free end, each tooth extending along a respective tooth axis oblique to an axis of the first component by an angle α. The first plurality of teeth is configured to engage with a plurality of complimentary teeth defined in a second free end of a second tubular shell component, such that, when engaged, the first plurality of teeth is configured to remain engaged with the plurality of complimentary teeth under axial load.

A method of monitoring aircraft including removing a conical collector through a cabin exhaust valve of the aircraft wherein ambient cabin air has been driven from the cabin over a reagent fluid within the conical collector in order to collect a representative sample of the cabin air within the reagent fluid.

A method of making an additively manufactured ejector pump includes creating a computer file defining the ejector pump in layers. The ejector pump includes a duct extending along a centerline from an upstream end to a downstream end, a nozzle extending inward from the duct including a flowpath, an annulus connected to the duct including a cavity. The method also includes building the ejector pump using an additive manufacturing process that builds the ejector on a layer-by-layer basis from the upstream end to the downstream end.

A water extractor includes a body with an outer wall, an inlet, an outlet, a first centerline axis, an inner nozzle, an outer chamber, a serpentine channel, a pocket, and a boss. The first centerline axis extends through a center of the body, the outlet, and the inlet. The inner nozzle is co-axial with the first centerline axis. The outer chamber extends between the outer wall and the inner nozzle. The serpentine channel fluidly connects the inlet and the outer chamber. The pocket is fluidly connected to a portion of the outer chamber and is configured to collect water from the outer chamber. The boss extends from and is fluidly connected to the pocket. The boss includes a second centerline axis at an angle with the first centerline axis of approximately 10 degrees or greater.
