MID-AIR REFUELING OF A MIRAGE F1 FIGHTER

Re-engining of a Mirage F1 Fighter required modification of the existing aircraft refueling system. Aerosud used Flownex to; Predict flow rates and refueling sequences in the system. Investigations of valve failure cases were also performed with Flownex to ensure that for any single failure case, the system would remain safe.
“Flownex® enabled engineers to analyze the complete fuel system and its components in an efficient and accurate way, providing them with piece of mind that the final system design is safe, reliable and conforms to customer requirements.”
