A Fuel Systems Anti-Icing Concept for a Modern Commercial Jet Engine 942191

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.
