β¦ Synopsis
manually operated intake control for improving the performance of N. A. C. A. Roots type superchargers. The investigation was conducted by the staff of the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics at Langley Field, Va.
These valves, which may be either of the oscillating or rotating type, are placed in the discharge opening of the supercharger and are so shaped and synchronized with the supercharger impellers that they do not open until the air has been compressed to the delivery pressure. The intake control limits the quantity of air compressed to engine requirements by permitting the excess air to escape from the compression chamber before compression begins.
