Abstract
A NEW high and low temperature aircraft hydraulic rig is now in operation at the Dunlop Rubber Company's Aviation Division at Foleshill, Coventry. The purpose of the new rig is to test hydraulic system components—particularly those of wheel‐braking systems—of supersonic aircraft using the more advanced type of hydraulic fluid such as Imperial Chemical Industries Silcodyne H (DP.47). The rig is able to operate throughout a temperature range typical of that likely to be experienced by such high‐performance military aircraft.
