Title: External Fuel Tank Temperature Evaluation
Author: John E. Blyler
Source: 1984 Measurement Science Conference
Year Published: 1984
Abstract: In an effort to expand the available crude oil supply, for use as aircraft fuel, the Navy is examining the effects of relaxing the freezing point specification of JP-5 aircraft fuel, To confirm the validity of the concept, the Naval Weapons Center has designed a test to obtain fuel tank temperature data during flight. An analytical model of the flight environment, using the resulting test data, has been constructed and is being used to predict the worst-case, coldest temperatures experienced by the aircraft fuel during flight. Test results should be available by the end of 1983, and will be used as the basis for completing fuel specification changes
