Assessing fuel spill risks in polar waters: Temporal dynamics and behaviour of hydrocarbons from Antarctic diesel, marine gas oil and residual fuel oil

Broadening of aviation fuel specifications has been simulated with blends of gas oil and residual fuel oil. Radiation, smoke and temperature measurements in a developed experimental combustor at various air pressures, inlet temperatures and air-fuel ratios permit derivation of a non-dimensional temperature parameter showing good correlation with theory.

Rate Of Increase

Broadening of aviation fuel specifications has been simulated using blends of gas oil and residual fuel oil. Radiation, smoke, and temperature measurements in an experimental combustor at various air pressure, inlet temperture, and air/fuel ratios showed a diminishing rate of increase of radiation with soot concentration and reduced sensitivity of smoke to fuel hydrogen content at higher combustor pressures.

An investigation has been conducted of the effects that air and fuel properties have upon the spray mean dropsize characteristics of a plain-jet airblast atomizer of the type employed in the gas turbine engine. The fuels tested included kerosine, gas oil and a high-viscosity blend of gas oil in residual fuel oil. The tests covered a wide range of ambient air pressures. Well established laser light-scattering technique was employed for dropsize measurements. The experimental data collected in the present investigation are presented in this paper and comparisons are made against similar data relating to the pre-filming type of airblast atomizer, collected in an earlier study (2).

Light Scattering Technique

A study has been conducted of the effects that fuel and air properties have upon the mean droplet size characteristics of a pre-filming airblast atomizer of the type commonly employed in the gas turbine engine. The fuels tested included kerosine, gas oil and two blends of gas oil in residual fuel oil. The tests were carried out over a wide range of air pressures (about 1 to 13 atmospheres), fuel viscosities (about 0.001 to 0.037 Ns/m2) and the spray mean drop sizes were measured using a laser light-scattering technique. The experimental data accumulated in the study is presented in the paper and it is concluded that the spray Sauter Mean Diameter performance of the atomizer studied can be predicted to a reasonable degree of accuracy, over the range of conditions studied, by a relatively simple correlating equation.
