Fluidics technology has been considered for use in controls in aerospace environments to obtain reliable and cost-effective systems. Although many applications involving fluidics have been in production for several years, there have been a number of failures while attempting to apply fluidics technology to aerospace applications. Fluidic techniques, therefore, must be very carefully evaluated for any application before being considered as the most desirable technology to be used. Presentation of an overview of design parameters which must be given due consideration by the fluidic system designer. These include such effects as temperature, altitude, available power, accuracy, and the interfacing of the technology with other system components. This paper also cites case histories of three fluidic control applications. (Wassmann)
