STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY, ACCELERATED CORROSION AND FLOW CAPACITY TESTS OF PARKER AIRCRAFT COMPANY VALVE, CHECK, ONE-INCH, AIRBORNE, FUEL PARKER PART NUMBER 2630014. GD/A PART NUMBER 27-02402-5
Abstract
Two units were submitted for testing. The test program consisted of diameter measurements, accelerated corrosion, flow capacity and burst pressure tests. A 30-day accelerated corrosion test caused severe corrosion of the body base metal; but, there was no evidence of stress corrosion cracking. The pressure drop was 5.2 psi (allowable is 9 psi) at a water flow rate of 70 gpm. The burst pressure of a unit free of corrosion was 5l00 psig. A unit previously subjected to a 30-day accelerated corrosion test demonstrated a burst pressure of 3650 psig. Minimum required burst pressure is 2400 psig. A detailed description of all tests and results, including a list of equipment employed in the performance of the test program, is presented in this report.
