Investigations Of The Negative Temperature Coefficient Region Of Sustainable Aviation Fuels For Mitigation Of Global Warming, Richard C. Smith Iii
Honors College Theses
An investigation was led to determine the correlations between the durations of Ignition Delay (ID), Combustion Delay (CD), Derived Cetane Number (DCN), Negative Temperature Coefficient (NTC), Low-Temperature Heat Release (LTHR) regions, ringing intensity, and precent mass burn, and the effect of blending the Fischer-Tropsch (F-T) synthetic aerospace fuel (SAF), iso-paraffinic kerosene (IPK), with petroleum derived Jet-A aerospace fuel on these regions. Neat blends of Jet-A and IPK and three by mass blends of the fuels will be researched. These blends include mass percentages of 75%Jet-A and 25%IPK (75Jet-A25IPK), 50%Jet-A 50%IPK (50Jet-A50IPK), and 25%Jet-A 75%IPK (25Jet-A75IPK). The study will utilize a …
