Correlation Study of Thermal Stability Test Methods.
Abstract
A study was conducted to determine the degree of correlation between aviation turbine fuel thermal stability test methods ASTM D 1660 and ASTM D 3241. The primary parameters investigated in the study were tube deposit and filter pressure drop breakpoint temperatures as evaluated on the ASTM-CRC Fuel Coker and the JFTOT thermal stability test devices. Correlations are classified by fuel type (JP-4 and kerosene type), tube deposit rating method (Visual, Spun 18 and Spot 20), and order of curve fit (linear and quadratic).
