An Investigation of Eme as a Potential Cause of Fuel Tank Ignition
NASA researchers were tasked to study the potential for radio signals to excite an aircraft fuel quantity indication system (FQIS) enough to cause arcing, sparking or excessive heating within a fuel tank. Computational techniques were used to determine the threat from external high intensity radiated field (HIRF) transmitters nearby, like shipboard and airborne RADAR systems. Experimental metho...
متن کاملTakagi-Sugeno Fuzzy Model-Based Attitude Control of Spacecraft with Partially-Filled Fuel Tank
This paper presents a Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy model-based controller which stabilizes the attitude of spacecraft with a partially-filled fuel tank. First, the nonlinear equations of motion of spacecraft containing a liquid fuel store is presented briefly. Then, the fuzzy modeling and the parallel distributed compensation control technique are applied. The proposed fuzzy controller is a nonlinear co...
متن کاملPhoto-ignition of Carbon Nanotube for Ignition of Liquid Fuel Spray and Solid Fuel
We have studied the ignition of liquid fuel and certain solid fuels by the photoignition of single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). Our investigation includes the effect of solid additives such as aluminum nano-particles and solid oxidizers such as ammonium perchlorate (AP) on the photoignition characteristics. We have shown that by mixing CNT with other nanoparticles and powdered material, the ...
متن کاملBuckling Study of Thin Tank Filled with Heterogeneous Liquid
Buckling of imperfect thin shell tank which is subjected to uniform axial compression is analyzed. The effect of internal pressure on the stability of a shell tank filled with a homogeneous-heterogeneous liquid was considered. Investigation of the liquid nature effect on reduction of the shell buckling load is performed by using the finite elements method. Calculating results in terms of analyt...
متن کاملCenter-Wing Fuel Tank Explosion
This report summarizes modeling studies supporting the second phase of quarter-scale testing for the NTSB investigation of the TWA Flight 800 accident. In this study, fuel-air tests were conducted to replicate earlier tests to assure repeatability of results. The quarter-scale test tank was redesigned to use heated Jet-A fuel/air mixtures at reduced ambient pressures. Although violent combustio...
