inerting

名詞

不可算名詞

The filling of the ullage of a fuel tank with an inert gas to reduce the risk of explosion.

日本語の意味

燃料タンクの空隙（ullage）に不活性ガスを充填し、爆発のリスクを低減させる作業、またはその工程 / 安全性向上のために燃料タンク内の空間に惰性ガスを注入する処置

In the new tanker design, inerting is performed continuously during refueling to prevent vapor ignition.

新しいタンカーの設計では、燃料タンクの空隙に不活性ガスを充填して爆発の危険を低減する処理が給油中に連続的に行われ、蒸気の着火を防いでいます。

意味（1）

The filling of the ullage of a fuel tank with an inert gas to reduce the risk of explosion.

With regard to fuel tank inerting, the FAA letter stated that its research on ground-based inerting indicated that the costs associated with the needed ground equipment are significantly less than what was estimated by the FTHWG and, further, that analysis indicated that ground-based inerting would reduce the fleetwide average flammability exposure for affected CWTs to about 2 percent. The FAA indicated that it planned to conduct ground and flight tests to determine how long ground-based inerting would remain effective during flight and whether vent system modifications would be required to ensure its effectiveness. The FAA stated that it is also establishing an ARAC working group to gather additional data on the practicality of both ground-based and on-board inerting methods.
