NASA Technical Reports Server (NTRS) 19930091152: Comparison of alcogas aviation fuel with export aviation gasoline

Author: NASA Technical Reports Server (NTRS)

Year: 1921

Mixtures of gasoline and alcohol when used in internal combustion engines designed for gasoline have been found to possess the advantage of alcohol in withstanding high compression without "knock" while retaining advantages of gasoline with regard to starting characteristics. Test of such fuels for maximum power-producing ability and fuel economy at various rates of consumption are thus of practical importance, with especial reference to high-compression engine development. This report discusses the results of tests which compares the performance of alcogas with x gasoline (export grade) as a standard.
