Book excerpt: Determining the fate and transport of JP-8 jet fuel is a complex and important problem. As part of the startup procedures for jet engines, fuel is passed through aircraft engines before combustion is initiated. Because of the extremely low temperatures at northern tier Air Force bases, the unburned fuel does not evaporate readily and may come into contact with ground crew. To determine the amount and duration of contaminant contact, the evaporation of the emitted fuel must be modeled. The amount and composition of the fuel upon reaching the ground crew may be determined by droplet evaporation models that have already been developed. The evaporation of the fuel after adhering to the skin needs to be modeled. This knowledge of the fuel's fate may then be used to determine source terms for use in toxicological studies. This research involves the comparison of two existing droplet evaporation models and the calculation of the evaporation of a film of jet fuel from a surface. The existing models are compared in order to make recommendations on which model to use to predict the amount and composition of fuel reaching the ground crew. To make the surface evaporation problem amenable to modeling, simplifying assumptions are made. The fuel is assumed to be a uniformly distributed mixture of representative hydrocarbon groups. Due to the complexity of the mixture of aviation fuels, a mixture of the predominant species were chosen as representatives to approximate the physical behavior of the entire fuel mixture. The goal of this research is to determine the most appropriate model for predicting the amount and composition of jet fuel reaching the ground crew and to extend the more appropriate fuel droplet evaporation model to describe the evaporation of a film of fuel from a surface. A validation of the resultant model is then performed by comparing the calculations to experimental data.

Download or read book Evaporation and Groundfall of JP-4 Jet Fuel Jettisoned by USAF Aircraft written by and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An experimental and modeling effort was undertaken to determine the physical fate of JP-4 jet fuel discharged from an aircraft in flight. A computer model was developed to simulate evaporation and free-fall of fuel droplets in the atmosphere. In order to apply this model to jettisoned fuel, an experimental study was performed to determine the droplet size distribution produced by the jettisoning process. This study featured in-flight sampling of the fuel plume from a KC-135 tanker aircraft. Sampling was also performed at ground level to determine whether the jettisoned fuel reached the ground in significant concentrations. For fuel jettisoning as low as 750 meters above the ground at temperatures around 11 C, no liquid fuel could be detected by ground observers and no significant hydrocarbon concentrations (greater than a few ppm C) were measured by the sampling.

Book Synopsis Inert Gas Scattering and Evaporation from Jet Fuel Surrogates Using Liquid Microjets by :
Download or read book Inert Gas Scattering and Evaporation from Jet Fuel Surrogates Using Liquid Microjets written by and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vacuum-based investigations into the dynamics of gas-surface collisions for high vapor pressure liquids, including water and hydrocarbon fuels, are complicated by the dense vapor cloud that forms above the surface of the liquid. Earlier surface forming techniques, relying on a liquid-coated wheel, were limited to vapor pressures of 0.005 Torr. Narrow diameter liquid jets circumvent this limitation because their small surface area minimizes evaporation; the sparse vapor cloud surrounding the thin liquid jet, suppresses collisions between solvent vapor molecules and impinging or evaporating probe gas molecules. We use liquid microjets to investigate the interfacial behavior of surrogates of JP-8, a military grade jet fuel, under conditions that mimic the temperature of a gas turbine combustion chamber. Collisions between gases and liquids control the heating and vaporization of fuel droplets in jet engines. These dynamics can be investigated by gas-liquid scattering experiments. We explored collisions of oxygen and neon with dodecane (0.1 Torr vapor pressure) and compared them to collisions with a low vapor pressure liquid, squalane (10-8 Torr). The extent of energy transfer and thermalization are remarkably high and similar for the two hydrocarbon liquids. These studies suggest that hot gas molecules readily transfer their energy and heat and vaporize fuel droplets during the combustion process. We also used liquid microjets to explore the evaporation of inert gases from fuel and fuel surrogates. We find that most gas species evaporate with a Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution of kinetic energies (2RTliq) under collision-free conditions; they follow an evaporation pathway that involves momentary binding (trapping) at the surface before they desorb. However, two weakly binding atoms, helium and neon, evaporate with super-Maxwellian distributions. The measured average energies of evaporating helium atoms range from 14% more than 2RTliq for dodecane (a pure hydrocarbon liquid) to 70% more than 2RTliq for a 7.5 M LiBr/water solution. These experiments imply that He atoms evaporate ballistically, rapidly traversing the interfacial region at high energies whose magnitude are determined by the packing, bonding, and masses of interfacial solvent molecules. The evaporation of H2 was found to be sub-Maxwellian, as predicted from its light mass and moderate polarizability.
Book Synopsis Research Test Facility for Evaporation and Combustion of Alternative Jet Fuels at High Air Temperatures by : J. E. Peters
Download or read book Research Test Facility for Evaporation and Combustion of Alternative Jet Fuels at High Air Temperatures written by J. E. Peters and published by . This book was released on 1984 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Improved gas turbine combustion performance will require the effective utilization of alternative fuels and advanced combustor concepts. Further understanding of spray combustion processes including fuel evaporation and flame propagation is required. Research is underway which features a high pressure and temperature non-vititated air system to provide air at simulated gas turbine inlet conditions. A special fuel injection system was designed to produce monodisperse sprays for the purpose of evaporation and eventual combustion experiments in our newly developed test facility. This report represents a summary of the engineering activities during the first year (of a two year contract) which was focused on the construction of a combustion test facility in which the evaporation and burning rates of jet fuels can be measured as a function of inlet conditions and fuel properties. A large heat exchanger facility which supports this research can deliver continuously non-vitiated air at flowrates up to 1 kg/sec and 600 kPa at temperatures from 300 to 900K. Details of the evaporation/combustion test section are described. Also included are the design of the fuel injection system and test results of the injector showing monodisperse sprays with drop diameters of approx. 70 micrometers.

Book Synopsis Characterization and Properties of Petroleum Fractions by : M. R. Riazi
Download or read book Characterization and Properties of Petroleum Fractions written by M. R. Riazi and published by ASTM International. This book was released on 2005 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last three chapters of this book deal with application of methods presented in previous chapters to estimate various thermodynamic, physical, and transport properties of petroleum fractions. In this chapter, various methods for prediction of physical and thermodynamic properties of pure hydrocarbons and their mixtures, petroleum fractions, crude oils, natural gases, and reservoir fluids are presented. As it was discussed in Chapters 5 and 6, properties of gases may be estimated more accurately than properties of liquids. Theoretical methods of Chapters 5 and 6 for estimation of thermophysical properties generally can be applied to both liquids and gases; however, more accurate properties can be predicted through empirical correlations particularly developed for liquids. When these correlations are developed with some theoretical basis, they are more accurate and have wider range of applications. In this chapter some of these semitheoretical correlations are presented. Methods presented in Chapters 5 and 6 can be used to estimate properties such as density, enthalpy, heat capacity, heat of vaporization, and vapor pressure. Characterization methods of Chapters 2-4 are used to determine the input parameters needed for various predictive methods. One important part of this chapter is prediction of vapor pressure that is needed for vapor-liquid equilibrium calculations of Chapter 9.
