Standard Test Method for Thermal Oxidation Stability of Aviation Turbine Fuels (JFTOT Procedure)
The following bibliographic material is provided to assist you with your purchasing decision:
Scope
1.1 This test method covers the procedure for rating the tendencies of gas turbine fuels to deposit decomposition products within the fuel system.
1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The inch-pound values given in parentheses are for information only. The differential pressure values in mm Hg are defined only in terms of this test method.
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. For specific warning statements, see 6.1.1, 7.2, 7.2.1, 7.3, 11.1.1, and Annex A3.
Significance and Use
The test results are indicative of fuel performance during gas turbine operation and can be used to assess the level of deposits that form when liquid fuel contacts a heated surface that is at a specified temperature.
