Impact of Aviation Grade Ethanol on Maintenance and Service Intervals |
摘要: |
The objective of this proposal is to study the impact of long term operational use of Aviation Grade Ethanol on aircraft maintenance and engine service intervals. To address this, a fresh engine will be installed in an airframe with, to the extent possible, new fuel system components. This aircraft will then be operated through a recommended time between overhaul (TBO) period fueled exclusively with Aviation Grade Ethanol. Service history will be compiled throughout this period of evaluation. While the engine and fuel system endurance is being studied, this aircraft will also be used to verify findings of the fuel efficiency and detonation testing currently being conducted at South Dakota State University. |
