Abstract
The solution developed to solve problems relating to operation with cold fuel consists in:
-
using only free calories available in the engine oil systems with no air heater being used,
-
heating as necessary just the quantity of fuel used for engine control to prevent icing of the systems at takeoff,
-
heating the fuel inside the aircraft tanks to ensure correct pumping during very long flights at high altitude.
