Abstract:

The evaluation of the power characteristics of fuels for modern gas-turbine engines should be done starting from their weight heat-producing capacity, density, and completeness of combustion corresponding to the altitude of flight. For improving the power characteristics of fuels for aviation gas-turbine engines, a greater amount of high-boiling fractions should go into their composition. The greatest power possibilities, which exceed by 10 to 13 those of modern jet fuels, are possessed by fuels which contain bicyclic naphthenic hydrocarbons that are derivatives of dicyclohexyl.
