Sustainable Aviation Fuels Spray Formation Analyzed with Laser Diffraction and High Frame Rate Imaging
Poster 175
- Sustainable aviation fuels (SAFs) are one of many options currently explored to decrease harmful emissions resulting from production and combustion of fossil-based aviation fuels.
- The Fischer-Tropsch Process used to create S8 provides an alternative method of producing liquid fuels sources other than petroleum. The process also be used to convert biomass into a cleaner and more economical alternative to commercial jet fuel. [1]
- Atomization determines the efficiency and the viability of alternative fuels. The internal and external characteristics of a custom injection system are analyzed to see what differences exist between one fuel produced using the Fischer-Tropsch process and conventional ultra low sulfur diesel.
