Abstract
The present invention relates to a system for venting interior cores of composite structures. Generally, the venting system includes a mounting assembly and a venting medium. The mounting assembly generally interconnects the venting system to the composite structure generally with respect to a first air hole of the composite structure. The venting medium may have a perimeter region and an airflow region disposed inwardly of the perimeter region. In one aspect, this airflow region of the venting medium may be free from direct contact with any other portion of the venting system. In another aspect, the venting medium may be made of a fluorocarbon polymer/copolymer. Upon implementation of the present invention, airflow that is generally directed through the first air hole and that passes between the core of the composite structure and an exterior environment (e.g., a payload compartment) generally passes through the venting medium of the venting system.
