TLDR
In this paper, the thermal stability characteristics of kerosine-type fuels are examined using a heated-tube apparatus which allows independent control of fuel pressure, fuel temperature, tube-wall temperature and fuel flow rate.Abstract:
The thermal stability characteristics of kerosine-type fuels are examined using a heated-tube apparatus which allows independent control of fuel pressure, fuel temperature, tube-wall temperature and fuel flow rate. This method is identified simply as a “constant wall temperature method”. It is different from a previous widely used method, which is identified as a “constant heat flux method”. It is a single-pass system. Rate of deposition on the tube walls are measured by weighing the test tube before and after each test.read more
