      <title>ANTIMISTING FUEL SPILLAGE/AIR SHEAR TESTS AT NAVAL WEAPONS CENTER</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/75389</link>
      <description><![CDATA[A test apparatus consisting of a large-scale airfoil located within a temperature-velocity-controlled airstream was used to evaluate the fire suppression afforded by FM9 antimisting fuel additive in Jet A. A homogeneous low turbulence airstream between 100 and 170 knots was used to obtain crash-survivable antimisting fuel kinematic data. It was demonstrated that FM 9 could be an effective antimisting agent. The failure envelope for FM9 in 27 C Jet A fuel was measured for agent concentrations from 0.3 to 0.5 percent and 32 C airflow velocities between 100 and 170 knots. (Author)]]></description>

      <title>ANTIMISTING FUEL KINEMATICS RELATED TO AIRCRAFT CRASH LANDINGS</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/73947</link>
      <description><![CDATA[An approximate analysis is presented to quantitize kinematic behavior of antimisting Jt A fuel in an airstream representative of survivable aircraft crash landings. Antimisting fuel data were generated from a fuel expulsive airfoil placed in an airstream adjacent to a pulsing propane flame.  Measurements of burning front velocities and accelerations were obtained from a camera located within the airfoil.  These data were used in the analysis to predict the diameter, shear stress, and shearing strain rate of the average particle of antimisting fuel in the airstream under the airfoil.  A description is given of the airflow-airfoil apparatus in the context of its simulation of crash landing conditions.  The feasibility of using antimisting agents to suppress a fuel fire during a crash landing is evaluated.]]></description>

      <title>PHOTOGRAPHIC INVESTIGATION OF MODIFIED FUEL BREAKUP AND IGNITION</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/63394</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Laboratory evaluations were performed to determine the flammability characteristics, physical properties, and rheological profiles of modified fuel sprays. Photographs were made of fuel particles formed by air shearing in the NAFEC Fire Test Facility. Ignition studies of the modified fuel sprays included photographs of typical combustion patterns. Comparisons of shear viscosity, droplet geometries, and ignitability of the different antimisting fuels clarify the effect of polymeric additives on turbine fuel safety, and indicate critical criteria for modified fuel specifications. The results of this investigation lead to two major conclusions. First, the modified fuel spray consists of particles of large size and highly aspherical geometry. Second, although a modified fuel can be flammable in the presence of an intense ignition source, all modified fuels tested were more difficult to ignite than neat fuel. (Author)]]></description>
