WATER SUPPLY AND DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM ON-BOARD AN AIRCRAFT AND METHOD FOR OPERATING SUCH SYSTEM
The present invention relates to a method for operating an on-board water supply and distribution system (1) of an aircraft (3) for supplying water, the system comprising a central water tank (9), a central pump (21), having an upstream side (23) and a downstream side (25) and being capable of conveying and pressurizing water from the upstream side (23) to the downstream side (25), a plurality of consumer assemblies (5), each consumer assembly (5) comprising a supply device (7) and a buffer tank (41), wherein the buffer tank (41) of each of the consumer assemblies (5) comprises a pressurizing device (61) configured for applying a consumer pressure to the water kept in the buffer tank (41), and each consumer assembly (5) being configured to supply water from the buffer tank (41) via the supply device (7), and a high-pressure conduit system (27), wherein the central water tank (9) is connected to the upstream side (23), wherein the high-pressure conduit system (27) connects the downstream side (25) with the plurality of consumer assemblies (5), with the high-pressure conduit system (27) being configured such that the central pump (21), when operating is capable of delivering water from the downstream side to the buffer tank (41) of each of the consumer assemblies (5), the method comprising the following steps: operating the central pump (21) such that water in the high-pressure conduit system (27) is pressurized to a predetermined first pressure; monitoring the pressure in the high-pressure conduit system (27) for a predetermined first period of time; and providing a first failure signal when the pressure in the high-pressure conduit system (27) drops below a predetermined second pressure within the first period of time.
