This book was released on 2003-03-01 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Military aviation fuel systems can be an ideal environment for microorganisms. Microbial growth in hydrocarbon fuel systems arises because of the impracticality of keeping fuel tanks sterile and the inevitable presence of water from condensation. Microbial contaminants in aviation fuel systems are a concern because of their potential to degrade the fuel, accelerate tank corrosion, and threaten flight safety. This research addresses the concern of using more environmentally friendly Fuel System Icing Inhibitors (FSII), which are also biocidal. Are significant levels of microorganisms growing in military aviation fuel systems, and if so, are there any common variables? Forty aviation fuel samples were collected from fuel storage tanks (including flexible expeditionary fuel bladders), refueling trucks, and aircraft from 12 U,S, military bases. Samples were analyzed using peak naming and pattern recognition algorithms of sample extracts processed on a gas chromatograph. Significant levels of microorganisms were found in military aviation fuel systems 90% (36 of 40) of fuel samples produced microbial growth. Over 40% of the serial dilutions that produced microbial growth were characterized as moderately or heavily contaminated samples. The microorganisms isolated were overwhelmingly Gram negative, anaerobic, bacilli with populations varying by orders of magnitude.

Book excerpt: Since the introduction of the jet engine and its increasing refinement, fuel began to assume a much more prominent role in the overall design of the aircraft [1-1]. Fuel has now reached at least an equal design consideration as the engine and airframe [1-2]. There are several reasons for this increased importance of the fuel in the overall system. In addition to its essential function of providing the energy necessary for flight [1-3], the fuel will act as the primary heat sink required for cooling the aircraft and its equipment [1-4]. In many future systems, the fuel will constitute over fifty percent (50%) of the total weight [1-5] of the system and the fuel cost may well be as high as fifty percent (50%) of the direct operating cost (Figure. 1.1.). The purpose of this mini book is to summarize the progress made to date in the development of these advanced hydrocarbon fuels and to submit the necessary requirements for future hydrocarbon fuels for the aerospace industry. The idea of regular supersonic flight of air-breathing weapon systems has become a reality within previous years and the advancement of even faster systems will continue [1-7]. This incredible boost in flight speed has led to significant increases in the relative value of the fuel to the general system [1-8]. In the period of the piston engine, airplane designers were more concerned with the engine and the airframe rather than with the fuel [1-9]. The choice of fuel to be utilized in the airplane was often of secondary significance [1-9]. All things considered, with the presentation of the jet engine motor and its expanding change, the fuel began to assume significantly more fundamental capacity in the general plan till the point has now achieved where the fuel has obtained at least proportionate status with the motor and the airframe [1-10].

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Microorganism growth during hydrocarbon storage is a well-recognized problem. The most easily detected problem is fuel filter plugging, particularly in aviation fuels. Other problems include degradation of hydrocarbon quality, corrosion of storage tanks, and concentration of hazardous or toxic growth by-products in the water associated with the storage.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Biospecialties Branch, MRMPB, 6570 Aerospace Medical Research Laboratories, initiated a research effort to support and supplement the Air Force Aeronautical Systems Division program concerned with the relationship of microbial contamination to deleterious changes in JP-4 fuel systems. Results of this program have shown the following: the majority of JP-4 fuel systems contain low levels of viable microorganisms; microorganisms are primarily associated with the water phase and rarely with the fuel phase of a JP-4 fuel/water system; JP-fuels exert a toxic effect on viable microbial cells; and microbial corrosion of aluminum alloys 7075 2024, and 7178 can occur in the laboratory but does not appear to be the major cause of corrosion in operational systems. Twenty percent ethylene glycol monomethyl ether (EGME) in a laboratory JP-4 fuel/water-bottom acts as an inhibitor to the majority of viable cells present. As a result of engineering design, it is possible that fuel capacitance probes can cease to operate as a result of microbial growth. Micronic filter materials of phenolformaldehyde impregnated paper can support the growth of microorganisms, but growth even after 43 days is insufficient to cause filter clogging, provided the filter is immersed in fuel. In addition, field surveys of JP-4 fuel handling facilities and aircraft have shown that improved housekeeping and the use of EGME have reduced the quantity of microbial contaminants initially found in the jet systems to an insignificant level.
