Abstract
A method of operating a RAM inlet header (RIH) is provided. The method includes determining a temperature of RAM air flows in a body through which RAM air flows from an inlet toward a heat exchanger, determining a temperature of excess air for use in an environmental control system (ECS) and, in an event the temperature of the excess air is less than the temperature of the RAM air flows, directing a curtain of the excess air from a nozzle body and along a wall of the body into flows of the RAM air and toward the heat exchanger.
