摘要: A 25-vehicle field demonstration test using a JP-8/FT SPK fuel blend was conducted at Ft. Bliss, Texas. The fuel blend prepared for Ft. Bliss contains 48%V FT SPK and 52%V JP-8. Density of the blend was 0.7766. The vehicle fleet included a variety of high-density Army wheeled vehicles and was conducted over a 12-month duration. An equal number of like control vehicles were used for comparison against vehicles using the FT SPK/JP-8 blend. The data acquired during this demonstration consisted of overall engine performance, vehicle operation and maintenance, general fuel economy, and assessment of exhaust smoke opacity readings. Overall fleet performance remained satisfactory to operators and mechanics throughout the test duration. Mechanically the vehicles performed equally well with FT SPK/JP-8 blend and 100%JP-8. The test vehicles logged a total of 47,500 miles and consumed 9,539 gallons of blended fuel while the control vehicles were driven 39,020 miles and consumed 6,908 gallons of JP-8 fuel.
