This report covers the first phase of a program intended to develop fluidic devices suitable to replace the electromechanical components in aircraft environmental control systems (ECS). In this phase of the program only shutoff and diverter valve functions were considered; however, future work would involve fluidic temperature and pressure regulation. The ECS of two aircraft were investigated; the McDonnell F-4 Phantom, and the Vought F-8 Crusader. Of these, the F-8 was selected for detailed study, and finally the rain removal subsystem (RRS) of that aircraft was selected for full analysis and hardware development. Two full scale devices were manufactured and tested. One, a vortex amplifier intended to replace the RRS shutoff valve, proved to be unacceptable, buth the other, a fluidic diverter, was shown to be a viable replacement for both the shutoff and RRS selector valves.
