Common Cabin Air Assembly Explanation: I understand that ISS stands for International Space Station. Then CCAA means Common Cabin Air Assembly (see details below). Temperature and Humidity Control Subsystem circulates air, removes humidity and maintains the ISS atmosphere within a constant temperature range. The workhorse of the subsystem is the Common Cabin Air Assembly, which pulls air through filters, cools and dehumidifies it, and diffuses it back into the atmosphere. The water removed is sent to the Water and Recovery Management Subsystem. Unfortunately, it seems there is no established Russian equivalent yet. You may try something like "установка для кондиционирования воздуха" ("ustanovka dlia konditsionirovania vozdukha"). Good luck! P.S. I believe that EVA means Extravehicular Activity, i.e. "работа в открытом космосе" ("rabota w otkrytom kosmose") (English-Russian Dictionary on Advanced Aerospace Systems, 1993; about 40,000 terms).
