Abstract
The article reviews mathematical model of liquid flow in metering system of fuel tank of rocket. The control system contains one horizontal and two vertical channels. Vertical channel has sensors for fixing free surface level of fluid in the channel. When the level of fuel reaches the sensor, it is activated, and the signal comes to the control system. As a result, fuel consumption is changing. Fuel level in the tank is determined on the basis of the fuel level in the channel. It is known that in the course of fuel consumption, surface free levels in the channel and in the tank do not match. The task is described by unsteady-state equation of motion. Viscous incompressible liquid model is used. The solution of the differential equation was performed numerically. Measurement error of liquid level in the fuel tank has been determined. The study proposes engineering solution to avoid the measurement error.
