So just one fuel temp sensor, and what proportion of the remaining fuel does it measure? Is the wing tip the coldest position? What are the fluid dynamics of hydrocarbons in a tank at critically low temperatures? Does it become a little like a soft boiled egg i.e. would the temperature be homogenous throughout the tank or would Apollo 13 type tank stirrers be required to make it so?
