Propulsion and Energetics Panel Working Group 13 on Alternative Jet Engine Fuels. Volume 1. Executive Summary.

Abstract

The Propulsion and Energetics Panel set up Working Group 13 on Alternative Jet Engine Fuels in 1978 to investigate possible properties of future civil and military aviation fuels and their effects on existing and new jet engines. This report discusses the supply and demand situation for kerosene type fuels, suggests properties of an AGARD Research Fuel for future experimental work, and discusses the probable effects of this kind of fuel on present and future engines. Some conclusions have been drawn based on present knowledge and areas requiring further research have been highlighted. This advisory report was prepared at the request of the Propulsion and Energetic Panel of AGARD.
