Download or read book A Modern Thermo kinetic Warm Fog Dispersal System written by Bruce A. Kunkel and published by . This book was released on 1978 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An extensive investigation has been made to arrive at optimum specifications for a thermo-kinetic warm fog dispersal system. This study included passive heat tests, sub-scale heat/momentum tests, and tests with a single full-scale runway combustor and an approach zone combustor. These tests were augmented with extensive analytical modeling of buoyant jets under coflowing and counterflowing wind conditions. The landing category and the operational requirements within each category are the primary factors affecting the size of the thermal fog dispersal system (TFDS). A Cat 2 TFDS employs 22 percent fewer combustors and uses 50 percent less fuel than a Cat 1 TFDS. The combustor specification and orientation are presented for both Cat 1 and Cat 2 systems.

This book was released on 1975 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This engineering study determines the feasibility of and prepares a conceptual design for a ground-based warm fog dispersal system at a selected airport which has a high frequency of fog and a large air traffic volume that is adversely affected by fog. Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) was selected as the airport for study. The study considers and includes a brief review of warm fog dispersal mechanisms. The results indicate that heat is presently the only reliable technique for warm fog dispersal. Two methods of applying heat to fog are examined in detail, namely, the Thermokinetic and Modified Passive Thermal. Engineering costs estimates are developed. The results of the study indicate that both systems would be cost-effective at Los Angeles International Airport. For improving the visibility in fog to CAT 2 minimums, the 12-year benefit-to-cost ratio of the Thermokinetic Fog Dispersal System which uses natural gas for fuel is 8.7 to 1 while the Modified Passive Thermal Fog Dispersal System has a ratio of 4.8 to 1. The study concludes that a Thermal Fog Dispersal System at LAX is both feasible and cost effective.
