Aircraft fuel tank fuel explosion is a threat to aviation safety is one of the main factors. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) recently to the airworthiness regulations was revised, the provisions of the aircraft fuel tank in the upper space of oxygen content, in order to ensure the safety of flight. This paper analyses the aircraft fuel tank mixed gas combustion causes general fuel inerting...
PROTEST is the name of a new UK based aerospace lightning direct effects research program with the principal purpose of researching the lightning direct effects of structural aircraft fuel tank joints. It is particularly focused on understanding the out-gassing phenomena and its relationship with the various design parameters of composite structures. Early activity within the project investigated...
This paper will provide an overview of the certification of airborne fuel systems to the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Federal Aviation Regulation (FAR) 25.981 [1] and the application of reliability analyses that result in engineering customer and stakeholder trust in aircraft safety.
In the history of aviation industry, the safety of human and sophisticated equipment are stressed mostly. It has been demonstrated that fire disaster of fuel tank system is a key factor that threatens the aircraft safety through massive accidents. With the failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA) and fault tree analysis (FTA), the reason of fire disaster for different kind of fuel tank system and the...
