The performance characteristics of a coal based synthetic JP-8 fuel were evaluated on an autothermal reformer experimental test stand. The target application for the reformate was a solid oxide fuel cell power unit. The synthetic JP-8 fuel was derived through the Fischer–Tropsch process, resulting in a predominantly paraffin based fuel. The synthetic JP-8 fuel was reacted in an atmospheric pressure...
Three fuel mixtures were investigated as possible surrogates for low-sulfur JP-8. The selected fuel mixtures were chosen based on a desire to match hydrocarbon chemical composition classes found in real jet fuels. The surrogate fuels selected consisted of single, binary and tertiary-component mixtures of n-dodecane, decalin and toluene in liquid volume ratios of 10:0:0, 9:1:0 and 7:1:2. The hydrocarbon...
The US Army Communications, Electronics Research Development and Engineering Center (CERDEC) envisions three thrust areas for portable fuel cell systems for military applications. These areas include soldier power (<500W), sensor power (0-100W), and auxiliary power units or APUs (0.5-10kW). Soldier and sensor fuel cell systems may be man-portable/backpackable while APUs could be employed as squad...
