Abstract
The effect of moncyclic versus polycyclic aromatic components in JP‐5 fuels, on total flame radiant energy was investigated. Variations in aromatic type and content within the JP‐5 specification had an effect on flame radiation. Polycyclic aromatic fuel blends burn with higher flame emissivities than the monocyclic blends of comparable ASTM Smoke Point. Radiant heating of metal parts was shown to be a function of their location in the combustion chamber. The use of low‐luminosity fuels gave major reductions in liner temperatures in the J‐57 combustion chamber.
