In aircraft design, the density of the fuel system refers to the mass per unit volume of the fuel. It is an important parameter to consider when designing fuel systems to ensure the proper functioning and efficiency of fuel delivery to the engines. The formula to calculate the density of the fuel system is as follows:
- ρ = Density of the fluid (in kilograms per cubic meter, kg/m³)
- P = Pressure of the fluid (in pascals, Pa)
- R = Specific gas constant for the fluid (in J/(kg·K))
- T = Temperature of the fluid (in kelvin, K)
