Abstract:

This report discusses the results of a study which investigated several alternatives for turbine fuels, which are being considered for use in the near term, with the intent of identifying the necessary certification criteria. The fuels investigated include Jet-A/ethanol blends, Jet-A/methanol blends, JP-4/ethanol blends, and neat ethanol. The tests were conducted using a T-63 turboshaft engine, which was mounted on the Technical Center's dynamometer. The use of dual fuel systems was also considered.
