SOME PROBLEMS PERTAINING TO LUBRICATION AND FUEL TECHNOLOGY: SUMMARY OF DATA.

Abstract

The book is a review of the state-of-the art in jet-fuel technology. The purpose is to acquaint the reader with the chemical composition and properties of jet fuels, and to provide information on problems which arise as a result of the current increase in output and consumption and the greater demands made upon the quality of jet fuels. The book generalizes data on the composition and properties of the fuels and on changes occurring during prolonged storage, transportation, and use in aircraft. Accumulated experience on the improvement of performance characteristics by means of additives is reviewed.
