Abstract:A method and a device are developed to determine the undissolved water content in jet engine fuels under dynamic conditions. The device consists of a sampler, a thermostatically controlled chamber, an undissolved water separation unit, and a unit for measuring the dielectric constant of dewatered and water-containing fuel. Dewatered fuel acts as internal ethanol, and the dielectric constant of ethanol and dewatered fuel is measured at the same temperature.A source of danger in aviation is the presence of water… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
