Fluids On The Flight

I’m not talking about fuel. I’m not talking about hydraulic lines. I’m talking about coffee.

"Whoa," Haines said, grabbing the yoke to correct the attitude. His elbow knocked the mug. fluids on the flight

| Flight Regime | Fluid Issue | Engineering Solution | |---------------|-------------|----------------------| | | Fuel unports tank outlet | Flapper valves, collector cells, inverted flight fuel system | | High Alpha (AoA) | Hydraulic fluid foaming | Anti-foam additives, pressurized reservoirs | | Rapid Descent | Fuel tank implosion | Negative pressure relief valves | | Supersonic | Ram air temperature heats hydraulic fluid >150°C | Dedicated heat exchangers | I’m not talking about fuel
