PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM FOR A FUEL TANK AND METHOD |
| 摘要 |
A pressure monitoring system for a fuel tank includes a supply line fluidly coupling a fluid source with at least one fuel tank for supplying an inert gas to the at least one fuel tank. Also included is a pressure relief valve in communication with the supply line configured to detect a pressure differential between a supply line pressure and an ambient pressure. Further included is a pressure sensor configured to detect the supply line pressure. Yet further included is a controller in operable communication with the pressure sensor and the fluid source, wherein the controller is configured to modify a flow rate of the inert gas in the supply line upon detection of the supply line pressure exceeding a predetermined pressure limit. |

1. A pressure monitoring system for a fuel tank comprising:
a supply line fluidly coupling a fluid source with at least one fuel tank for supplying an inert gas to the at least one fuel tank; a pressure relief valve in communication with the supply line configured to detect a pressure differential between a supply line pressure and an ambient pressure; a pressure sensor configured to detect the supply line pressure; and a controller in operable communication with the pressure sensor and the fluid source, wherein the controller is configured to modify a flow rate of the inert gas in the supply line upon detection of the supply line pressure exceeding a predetermined pressure limit. |
