The project aims to develop a reliable fiber-optic system for detecting hot air leaks in aircraft, addressing safety concerns associated with carbon structures. It seeks to validate this technology in real aircraft environments, overcoming limitations of existing electrical systems.
Light carbon structures are increasingly used in modern aircrafts for reducing weight and thus fuel consumption.
The carbon materials are more sensitive to overheating than metals.
Hot air ducts are used to conduct air heated by engine exhaust to the cabin heating system.
At several locations, those hot air ducts are installed within or in close proximity to the carbon structures.
Therefore, reliable and precise hot air leak detection is an essential safety feature of modern aircrafts.
