MOTOR, JET, AND ROCKET FUELS

Abstract

''Motor and Jet Fuels and Rocket Propellants'' is the fourth completely revised edition of the first volume of the book ''Motor Fuels, Lubri cants, and Liquids,'' issued in 1957. It ex amines in detail the physicochemical and opera tional properties of aviation, jet, rocket, auto motive, diesel, and boiler fuels, as well as the basic problems relating to the qualities and utilization of these fuels in engines and air craft assemblies and ground machinery. Individ ual chapters of the book are devoted to the most important problems in the area of fuels corrosion and scale-formation properties, heat of combustion, low-temperature properties, tar formation, deposition, etc. This book is in tended for engineers and technicians working in areas in which fuels are used, as well as for those people engaged in the operation of various engines and the refining of petroleum.
