Aircraft Fuel Systems

With Aircraft Fuel Systems, the editors have provided a unique offering that integrates all aspects of fuel products and systems including fuel handling, quantity gauging and management functions for both commercial (civil) and military applications.

Collates together a wealth of information on fuel system design that is currently disseminated throughout the literature.

Authored by leading industry experts from Airbus and Parker Aerospace.

Includes chapters on basic system functions, features and functions unique to military aircraft, fuel handling, fuel quantity gauging and management, fuel systems safety and fuel systems design and development.

Accompanied by a companion website at wiley.com/go/langtonfuel, hosting a MATLAB®/SIMULINK model of a modern aircraft fuel system that allows the user to fly preset missions that demonstrate the effects of equipment failures.

Aircraft Fuel Systems provides a timely and invaluable resource for engineers, project and programme managers in the equipment supply and application communities, as well as for graduate and postgraduate students of mechanical and aerospace engineering. It constitutes an invaluable addition to the established Wiley Aerospace Series.
