DETECTION OF THE PRESENCE OF FUEL IN THE OIL OF AN AIRCRAFT ENGINE

In order to detect possible leaks of fuel into oil used in an aircraft engine when their circuits are connected via a heat exchanger liable to deteriorate, a gauge measuring the liquid level in a tank in which the oil is stored, and incorporated into the oil circuit, is designed so that its float si...

Zusammenfassung:In order to detect possible leaks of fuel into oil used in an aircraft engine when their circuits are connected via a heat exchanger liable to deteriorate, a gauge measuring the liquid level in a tank in which the oil is stored, and incorporated into the oil circuit, is designed so that its float sinks to the bottom of the tank in the event of sufficient leakage, when the density of the mixture becomes lower.
