National Aeronautics and Space Administration Conclusions • Negligible effect of fuel type on engine performance when compared on mass measurement basis and corrected for heating value within the accuracy of the measurements • Slight reduction in NOx emissions at higher power conditions for FT fuel • Scatter in CO and HC emissions at idle and sub idle due more to temperature effects than fuel type • SO2 emissions correlated directly with Sulfur in the fuel as expected • Some slight leakage under engine with neat HRJ and F-T fuels www.nasa.gov 25
