Abstract
A two-man space cabin simulator for research and training is being designed and built by Minneapolis-Honeywell for the Air Force School of Aviation Medicine. All provisions for physiological functions are to be completely contained within the sealed cabin for 30 days. Two major problems have been (1) reprocessing of urine and waste water for re-use and (2) complete control of atmospheric content. A small reprocessing plant has been fabricated with provides a usable water yield ranging upward from a minimum of 60 per cent depending on the amount of urine dilution. Cabin atmosphere is automatically controlled to the desired temperature, humidity, and partial pressures of oxygen, carbon dioxide and filter gas, utilizing a complex array of sensors and control techniques.
