Real-Time Quality Control of Antimisting Kerosene (AMK).

Abstract

This report discusses the results of a program to develop real-time quality-control tests for antimisting fuels. In Phase I, die-swell and torsional balance experiments were performed to compare the shear and normal stresses developed by AMK (0.3 percent FM-9 + glycol/amine in Jet A) and 0.1 percent ARCO in Jet A. In phase II, experiments were conducted to determine the effect of polymer concentration and methods of blending on the rheological properties of AMK. Keywords: Antimisting, Rheology, Fire safety.
