摘要: |
The effects of JP-8+100 fuel were investigated to: (1) identify and perform development work needed to accelerate the transition of JP-8+100 fuel to field use, (2) evaluate the cost effectiveness of using this fuel to reduce maintenance related to fuel fouling/coking in existing aircraft, and (3) assess the performance of JP-8+100 in current and future advanced high-performance engines and aircraft fuel systems. The additive selected by the Air Force was BetzDearbom Spec Aid 8Q462. The selected additive did not have any effect on endurance-engine hot sections. Maintenance records for Air National Guard squadrons were reviewed, and no evidence was found that the additive caused any change in the flight abort rate or was a reason for flight aborts. Fuel thermal-stability testing showed that additive increased fuel temperature capability. It was concluded that JP-8+100 would be safe to use in the field. |
