Test and Evaluation of Commercial and Military Standard Filter/Coalescer Elements at Lowered Temperatures.

Abstract

Tests were performed on military standard and commercial filter/coalescer elements to compare their ability to coalesce suspended water from hydrocarbon fuels at temperatures approximately 40 to 65 F. Test fuels were turbine fuel, JP-5, and diesel fuel, No. 2. Comparison tests of two manufacturers of water-in-fuel monitors (turbidimeters) were performed. Charts showing correlations were prepared and formulas were derived. (Author)
