A few days ago, a passenger aircraft in Ahmedabad crashed into the residential area. During this time 241 people died. After this, a helicopter crashed in Kedarnath on Sunday, in which 7 people have died. Both accidents remain in the headlines at this time. The plane accident with Ahmedabad was really more dangerous. This plane was so full of fuel or say that its tank was completely full, because the aircraft was going to London. That is why the accident became so serious and no one left except only one person. Now also know where and how fuel is filled in the plane.
Where is the fuel tank
Fuel filled in the aircraft depends on its engine. Fuel consumption is very high in the flight. You will be surprised to know that fuel in the plane is stored in his wings, not in his main body. A heavy fuel in the plane has a weight in both its wings. The main reason for storing its fuel into wings and keeping balance in the lift force in the air. It is very important to have a lift force on its wings equal to the weight of the plane. Therefore the fuel is kept in its wings.
Wings are hollow
The wings of the plane are very large to see, but they are absolutely hollow from inside. In these wings, jet fuel is filled. Apart from this, if fuel is filled elsewhere, which can be a problem of balance in the ship. But in long -range airplanes, fuel tank is not only in the wings but also in the middle part of the plane. This is called the Central Fuel Tank. So that long distances can be completed without stopping.
How is fuel filled
The process of filling fuel in airplane is completely different from common cars. On big airports, flights are either special fuel trucks for fuel re-filling, or an underground pipeline is used. Before the takeoff of the flight, a fuel truck comes to the plane and has a special nozzle under its wings. With this, fuel is supplied in the plane. This process is controlled through computer, so that the fuel of the meaning can be filled in the plane.
