Abstract

An Auxiliary Fuel Tank (TCA - 'Tanque de Combustivel Auxiliar') inside an aircraft is described, the TCA having a convex shape light constructive structure formed by an internal hull I that constitutes a first barrier, and by an external hull E that constitutes an external barrier totally surrounding the internal hull I; there are separation means between the hulls E, I, with a hollow, empty space between them; in case of fuel leak in the first barrier, a complete and reliable drainage occurs, making possible that the fuel is drained and collected in a certain point or area of the TCA.
