The low temperature performance of antimisting kerosene (AMK) in airframe fuel systems and in certain fuel system components was studied and compared to Jet A fuel. Water vapor ingested into fuel tanks during simulation of repeated descents through clouds and rain had little effect on AMK. AMK retained antimisting properties during exposure to severe environmental flight simulations. Jet pump and boost pump operation had no discernable effect on AMK flammability. Jet pump performance with AMK was adversely affected. Main fuel boost pumps required up to 18 percent more power with AMK that with Jet A, and suction feed performance was lower with ambient and -20 deg C, but better than Jet A and -40 deg C. Boost pump performance was not affected by gel formations produced at low temperatures by the vapor removal return flow shearing of AMK. Aerodynamic heating and cooling of AMK in the fuel tank was similar to Jet A.A high pressure pump and needle valve used to degrade the AMK was inadequate, resulting in filter bypass at low temperatures.

Download Aircraft Fuel System Simulator Tests with Antimisting Kerosene (Jet A Fuel with FM-9 Additive). Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
Tests were conducted on a full-scale C-141 aircraft fuel system simulator to evaluate system and component operation using antimisting kerosene fuels (Jet A fuel with FM-9 additive). A typical aircraft flight profile was simulated with the tank-to-engine fuel feed system operating. Tests were also conducted to evaluate the tank quantity gaging system accuracy, tank refuel valve operation and fuel transfer ejector operation. Fuels tested included Jet A, .30% FM-9 AMK, .35% FM-9 AMK and .40% FM-9 AMK. Flammability tests were conducted on selected fuel samples to evaluate degradation caused by the above tests. (Author).

Download Low Temperature Behavior of Fuels in Simulated Aircraft Tanks Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
Lockheed and Boeing each made a series of tests in aircraft fuel tank simulators to provide an improved understanding of the flowability and pumpability of jet fuels at or below their freezing point where waxy components separate. Each simulator represented a section of an aircraft wing fuel tank. Tests simulated the low temperature cruise environment associated with long duration flights under extreme, high-altitude conditions. Holdup, the fraction of unavailable fuel remaining in the tank after attempted fuel withdrawal, was used to characterize pumpability after low temperature exposure. The test fuels were derived from widely differing crude sources and were selected to cover a range of freezing points. Two of the test fuels were common to the Boeing and Lockheed investigations in order to assess variability due to simulator construction. One fuel in the Lockheed program contained a flow improver additive. In the Boeing program, one fuel was a blend of JP-5 and 9% marine diesel fuel. (Author).
