Fuel Level Sensors
During measurement, calibration point can be edited – quantity and sensor
values can be adjusted. Also, points can be deleted. Simply click on a mea-
surement point and select appropriate action.
Figure 69a shows an example of complete tank list. Steps were 10 liters and
the sensor stopped at 2.58 and 42 liters. Initially, during first step, 4 liters
were needed for a sensor to react. So, the real tank capacity is 46 liters, but
Aetos will show values between 0 and 42.
Figure 69b shows the final situation. The dark blue color line on the chart
shows tank non-linearity.

Predefined Shapes
Solution with predefined shapes is suitable for the cases, where the shape of
tank is known in advance. In this case, correct shape is slected and only
Empty/Full
procedure is applied. This is similar to the
Linear
case.
This works well, when fuel sensor mounting position do not vary from case
to case. Typically, tanks of larger depths has less problems and give better
results. For wing based tanks, we recommend user shape approach even if the
shape
is known.
