Jet A fuel

A laboratory combustor containing porous media and burning atomized Jet-A fuel was tested for exhaust emissions and flame temperatures. The major findings of this study are as follows ...

FIGURE 9.13 Principal component map of the 110 neat Jet-A and JP-5 fuel samples developed from the 85 GC peaks. The map explains 80% of the total cumulative variance. The JP-5 fuels are divided into two distinct subgroups fuel samples that lie close to the Jet-A fuels and fuel samples located in a region of the map distant from Jet-A fuels 2 = Jet-A and 5 = JP-5.

Jet A or A-l or JP8 (US Air Force) - a kerosene used by the world s airlines. These fuels are essentially a fraction distilled from crude oil mixed with some cracked material. Jet A fuels consist of 70-90% saturated hydrocarbons, 10-20% aromatics, but up to 30% aromatics in kerosenes. Sulfur compounds and alkenes are removed by hydrotreating. Jet fuels, like kerosenes comprise hydrocarbons in the C8-C17 range but the majority are found in the C10-C14 range.

Hautman [43] provided the following experimental correlation for volume mean diameter (VMD) and mass median diameter (MMD) using water and Jet-A fuel in like-on-like doublets ... 

Introduction. Diesel engines can be designed to use a wide variety of fuels however, if fuel other than diesel grade 1 or 2 is used, the manufacturer should be consulted. Jet A fuel can be used in diesel engines if it has a 40 octane minimum.
