The hot surface ignition tests were conducted with two test articles:
The test facility employed, the Aircraft Engine Nacelle Fire Test
Simulator (AENFTS) is equipped so that the velocity, pressure and
temperature of its airflow, simulating engine compartment ventilation air,
could be varied to represent a variety of aircraft flight conditions.
1.1 Background
AIT test conditions are much different than those in an aircraft engine
compartment, so attempts have been made in the past to measure Minimum Hot
Surface Ignition Temperatures (MHSIT's) that would more closely represent
aircraft engine compartment component limit temperatures. HUSIT's avove
the AIT of the fluid, sometimes hundreds of degrees Fahrenheit higher,
have been• determined during past test programs.
Much of the past HSIT test work has been done with greatly simplified test
articles vhicub were intended to simulate hot surfaces, primarily bleed-air
ducts, in aircraft engine compartments. The HSIT's determined in these
tests varied considerably, probably becausa of differences in test methods
and equipment. None of these tests employed a test article which closely
simulated an actual aircraft engine compartment. Hence the aircraft
engine compartment design information available from documentation of
these programs has been difficult to use. A summary of prior test efforts
follows:

The tunnel employed in these test- w-is a rectangular low speed wind
tunnel, about 3.9 inches high and 6.9 inches wide. The tunnel floor had
an electrically heated working section 18 inches long. Ventilation air at
room temperature and ambient pressure was supplied to the wind tunnel at
velocities up to 10 ft/sec. Kttrosene was sprayed onto the hot rectangular
tunnel floor at 500 psig (3.6 - 3.8 ml total volume).
The test procedure that was followed was to select a tunnel floor
temperature and a ventilation air velocity that would produce ignition and
then increase the ventilation air velocity in increments of 0.1 ft/sec
while the tunnel floor temperature was held constant until no ignition
occurred. This was repeated and the lowest air velocity which did not
produce ignition in 10 attempts was recorded. Air velocities suffi"4Ient
to prevent ignition of the kerosene were determined for a range of tunnel
floor temperatures from 700°F to 1472 0 F.
This study, while limited to kerosene, was one of earliest hot surface
ignition test programs applicable to aircraft engine compartment design
because, with its variety of flow obstructions, it did address the fact
that engine compartments also have a variety of flow obstructions which
create local velocity regions both above and below the average compartment
velocity.
Myronuk
Measured MHSIT's for test fluids at 2.6 ft/sec velocity and 15 ml/sec
fluid spray for 1 second (in 68OF air at ambient pressure), 1058°F for JP-
4, 878°F for 5606 and 797°F for 8328, were all well above the AIT's for
those fluids.
The nature of the test article and technique may have compromised the
application of these results to aircraft engine compartment design: (1)
4
The simulator used flame heated stainless steel or titanium pipe as ts
hot target. Since the surface material can atfect the MHSIT, and inconel
bleed ducts are frequently the hottest component in and aircraft engine
compartment, this choice may introduced bias into the MHSIT data. (2) The
ttst procedure called for increasing the surface temperature from one test
5
to another until ignition was achieved. In the present program it was
found that this technique led to falsely high MBSIT's. (3) The effects
of air temperature and pressure on MHSIT's were not addressed.
Parts
The lcjest minimum hot surface ignition temperatures recorded were 730°F
for 5606, 630°F for 83292 (below the fluid's AIT) and 1300OF for 7808 and
JP-4 and 1200OF for JP-8. Streams of fluid appeared to ignite at lower
surface temperatures than sprays.
E

stainless steel and heated electrically, some additional deviation from
the actual hot surface Ignition situation found in a normal aircraft
engine compartment could be expected.
Strasser
Strasser performed hot surface ignition tests using JP-4, JP-8, 5606,
83282 and 7808 (Uet. 4). The fhlids were injected (in a stream at various
flowrates) onto the hot surface, a cylindrical target 1, 2 or 4 inches in
diameter or e flat rectangular target. The target was electrically heated
and was suspended in an 8 inch diameter tube which could be ventilated
with air from a compressor. The ventilation air could be heated to 350OF
at 200 scfm.
It was found that the MHSIT's of the test fluids in,.;reased with increasing
ventilation velocity. Increasing the ventilation aii temperature,
however, produced lower MHSIT's. The lowest IHSIT's in 80°F air were
920°F for JP-4, 9001F for JP-8, 930°F for 5606, 880°F for 83282 and 1010°F
for 7808 for ventilation airtlow up tG 2 ft/secand.
Foose
After analysis of the data acquired in these tests, it was covi±luded that
th* risk associated with the omission of the bleed duct insulation was
ar:ceptable because of the infrequent occurrence of the maximunm bleed duct
temperatures during flight, even though estimated bleed duct operating
temperatures could occasionally exceed the measured ignition temperatures
of the test f].ttds.

While the engine compartment simulation employed in these tests was much
mnore realistic than in earlier pregrams, there were some compromises:
o Only two airflow obstructions were used while the F-16 engine
compartment is crowded with obstructions
TM. current program was planned to enhance the data base developed in
these tests.
1.2 Objective
The objective of the first part of the program, the simple duct tests, was
to investigate the phenomenon of hot surface ignition of flammable fluids
within an aircraft engine compartment with a test article thr.t was simple
enough to allow control of most of the test variables. This part of the
The objective of the second part of the program, the high realism tests,
was to determine the minimum hot surface ignition temperatures for each
1.3 Approach
For the first part, a seven inch long section of 1.5 inch OD inconel
tubing, 0.036 inch thick, was employed as a hot target. It could be
heated, either electrically or, with hot air (Fig. 2). This duct and a
spray nozzle were placed in the otherwise empty test section of the
AENFTS. HHSIT tests were run with JP-4 and 5606. The same cushion clamp
as used in the earlier General Dynamics tests was added to the duct for
some of these tests. These tests were run to:
0 compare HHSIT data acquired with this simple test article with
the data acquired in the Reference 5 (General Dynamics) tests.
For the second part of the program, a more complex test article was
installed in the AENFTS test section. A simulation of the right side of
the F-16 engine compartment, which had been built for earlier AENFTS
testing (Refs. 5, 6 and 7),
was reworked so that hot-air from the AENFTS
bleed-air heating system was routed through an actual F-16 engine bleed-
and clamps (Fig. 3). A spray nozzle and drip lines were added so that
the flammable fluids of interest could be sprayed or introduced as a
stream to various locations on the heated bleed duct.
Experiments were conducted with 5606, 83282, 7808, JP-4 and JP-8 entrained
onto the hot bleed duct to define realistic MHSIT values for the fluids.
Initially tests were conducted to establish the method of flammable fluid
delivery (spray or drip, fluid flowrate and duration) and delivery
location which produced the lowest MHSIT's for each fluid. The
ventilation airflow velocity, pressure and temperature were varied to
define HHSIT sensitivity to these parameters.

2.0 TEST FACILITIES
The AENFTS is a ground test facility designed to simulate the fire hazards
which exist in the annular compartment around an aircraft engine. The
AENFTS is insialled in 31-Bay of Building 7i-B, Area B, Wright-Patterson
Air Force Base, Ohio. This facility (Fig. 4) includes air delivery and
conditioning equipment design.2d to simulate engine compartment ventilation
airflow, a test section within which fire testing can safely be conducted,
and an exhaust system which can cool the combustion products and scrub
them sufficiently to allow their release into the atmosphere. In
addition, it includes a gas fired heating system to provide simulated
engine bleed-air to the test section.
The test section of the AENFTS (Fig. 5) is a two radian (114 degree)
engine case, and a 24 inch radius duct, which simulates the engine
compartment outer wall. The test section is approximately 14 feet long
and is equipped with access ports and viewing windows that are provided
for access to test equipment and instrumentation and for observation of
the test activities taking place vithin.

Simulation of the hazards associatcd with hot engine bleed ducts and the
leakage that might result from damage to bleed ducts or the engine case is
provided by the AENFTS bleed-air heating system. (See Reference 8 for
experimental determination of damage results from bleed air leakage.)
The forward right side of the F-100 engine, as it exists in the portion of
the F-16 engine compartment selected for simulation, is shown in Figure
6. A scrap early prototype F-100 engine was obtained and the components
in this region were removed and installed on a 5 foot-long simulated
engine side stainless steel base plate constructed to fit the engine side
of the AENFTS test section (Fig. 7). Intrusion into this region of the F-
16's glove tank and structural ribs was simulated in sheet metal (Figs. 8,
9 and 10) and fitted into the AENFTS test section over the engine side
base plate (Fig. 11). The final assembly represented one-third of the
engine compartment annulus. The remaining AE fTS test section length,

Fused quartz viewing windows were provided in the 15 inch square access
ports on the nacelle side of the AENFTS. One of these opened onto the
forward "arch" of the F-16 bleed duct.
Two fluid injection methods were used in the hot surface ignition test
PLUgtaiii1. Popzay vas uscd in both the simple duct and high realism tests
and additionally stream injection was used in the high realism tests.
Both spray and stream were part of a fluid delivery system shown in Figure
13.
Nitrogen gas was used to pressurize the stainless steel 2 and 3 liter
Hoke cylinders that were used as fluid reservoirs. The pressure of the
fluid reservoirs was monitored with a pressure transducer and the pressure
was displayed on the AENFTS console in the control room. The pressure was
controlled by operating a three position switch on the AENFTS console.
The fluid reservoirs were pressurized to 100 psig for stream injection,
and from 105 to 135 psig for 8 mi/sec spray, depending on the fluid being
sprayed. Lower reservoir pressures were required for fluids such as JP-4
and JP-8 while higher pressures were needed to achieve the proper spray
flowrate for 5606 and 83282 and 7808, fluids with higher specific
gravities and viscosities.
From the fluid reservoirs the fluid moved through 0.25 inch diameter
stainless tubing to a fiilter and then to an air actuated ball valve that
was connected to a switch and a timer located on the AENFTS console in the

control room. Spray was normally injected at 8 ml/sec for 5 seconds and
stream was normally injected at 2 ml/sec for 10 seconds. These values
were chosen because they were in the middle of the range used for the
General Dynamics tests (Appendix A of Ref. 5) but variation in their
magnitude was subsequently found to have little effect on the MHSIT's.

2.2 Test Article
The simple duct was a seven inch long straight piece of uninsulated
Inconel tubing (Fig. 14, 15 and 16). It had an outside diameter of 1.5
inches and a wall thickness of 0.036 inch. On either side of the seven
inch bare surface of Inconel, the duct was insulated with Fiberfax ceramic
putty and ceramic cloth and covered with fiberglass tape in order to
restrict ignitions to occurring on the portion of the Inconel duct that
was instrumented with thermocouples. During testing it was observed that
fires were ignited only on the bare metal portion of the duct.
Two methods of heating the duct were available (Fig. 14). The electrical
resistance heating method used three 1 KY Watlow Firerod resistance
heaters mounted every 1200 in a 6.5 inch steel cylinder that slid snugly
into the Inconel duct. These were the same heaters and steel cylinder as
had been used in the General Dynamics (Ref. 5) tests. Voltage to the
resistance heaters was manually controlled from the control room using a
simple 3-position switch and the duct temperature was observed on console
monitor. The duct could also be heated by air from the AENFTS bleed-air
heating system. The hot air was then mixed with cold high-pressure air to
control its temperature and then piped to the test article. The mixing
valve was also controlled manually while observing the duct temperature
indicated for location 3 (Fig. 17) on the the console monitor. Duct
temperature for both the simple duct and high realism tests was controlled
prior to injection but not during injection. After flowing through the

simulated bleed air duct, the heated air was piped outside the AENFTS test
section and exhausted near the ceiling of the room.
The thermocouples read uniformly (within + 20 0 F) when the test section was
air heated (Fig. 18) but there were larger temperature va rations (+..
0 were used (Fig.
150 F) on the duct surface when the resistance heaters
19). Similar variation was seen during the earlier General Dynamics
AENFTS testing. As a result, the ignition temperature for the resistance
heated simple duct tests depended on which thermocouple was chosen to
report the duct temperature. During this program it was felt that the
hottest point on the test section was most likely responsible for ignition
(when it occurred) and therefore the thermocouple at position 3, which
read the highest, was chosen as the reference thermocouple. This position
(Fig. 17) was at the mid-point of the duct and at the side with respect to
the approach of the ventilation airflow. For convenience, the
thermocouple at position 3 was also used in the air heated simple luct,
though ditue was little .ariation. between it and the other. 7 ,afl--1---
The criteria for selecting the reference thermocouple had been different
during the General Dynamics testing. During that program, to employ the
most conservative interpretation of the data, the thermocouple chosen was
the one which consistently read the lowest. The General Dynamics test
article consisted of two parallel heated sections of duct. The
thermocouple employed was at the mid-point of the upstream duct facing the
oncoming ventilation airflow. Other thermocouples were placed backside of
the upstream and front and backside of the downstream duct. The
variations between this thermocouple and the hottest points observed
0 0
(normally the backsides of boh ducts) ranged from 25 F to 75 F.
While there was no temperature data reported from the General Dynamics
test for a thermocouple located at the side of the duct, comparison can be
made between the data acquired for this position (position 3) and for the
position facing the oncoming flow (position 4) from the present program.
It can be concluded (Figure 19) that the General Dynamics HHSIT's would be
lower than those obtained in the current program by about 50°F at 1
ft/second and by almost 2001F at 8 ft/second.

The simple duct was mounted for most of its testing in a horizontal
position with AENFIS test section also in a horizontal position (Fig. 16).
In addition, some of the simple duct testing was performed with the duct
and AENFTS test section in a vertical posidion. The high realism testing
was performed with the AENPTS test section in the vertical position. For
the simple duct testing the test section was completely free of
obstructions such as tanks, piping and ribs. The effect of the presence
of a cushion loop clamp on H11SIT was examined during the simple duct tests
for boith rasistance heated and air heated ducts. This was the same clamp
that had been used during the General Dynamics testing and was also
installed at stream location 5 on the high realism test article. During
the simple duct testing it was mounted at the center of the seven inch
incoriel duct.
Prior to beginning hot surface ignition testing, with the AENFTS test
section in the horizontal position, the ventilation air velocity was
surveyed using a pitot probe. The pitot probe was installed temporarily,
about 0.75 inch upstream and 0.5 inch above the mid point of the simple
duct. The ventilation airflow was calibrated to give airflow velocity as
a function of measured mass flow for the range of 1 to 10 ft/sec. For the
simple duct ttst, the atmospheric blower was used to supply the
ventilation air. The pitot tube was not Installed during hot surface
ignition testing. T'iis calibration was not repeated with the test section
in the vertical position because no significant difference was
anticipated.
Spray was the only meEhod of fluid injection used in the simple duct
tests. 5606 and JP-4 were sprayed at 8 ml/sec for 5 seconds from a Wagner
621 flat spray nozzle (0 inch spray fan half-width at 12 inches from the
spray nozzle exit and a nozzle equivalent diameter of 0.021 inch). The
flat spwey was parallel to the long axis of the test section and the
33
nozzle was placed 12 inch upstream of the lead edge of the duct. Viewing
the simple duct through the rig viewing window, it was clear that the
spray completely covered the uninsulated area of the duct. Spray flowrate
was controlled by pressurization of the fluid reservoirs and spray
flowrate vs. pressure curves for the fluids were generated prior to
testing.
The simple duct test section was visible through a quartz window in the
AENFTS wall. A video camera was aimed at the test section and made it
possible to remotely view injections and ignitions during testing.
Actual 11-16 engine nacelle parts were used in the construction of the high
realism hot surface ignition test article. Among its principal features
were the 13th stage bleed-air duct, air-oil heat exchanger tank, augmentor
fuel pump and various tubes and clamps (Fig. 20). The AENFTS was oriented
vertically throughout the high realism test so that the position of the F-
16 components was the same as if they were installed in the aircraft. The
bleed-air duct was made of the same material as the simple duct, 1.5 inch
O.D. and 0.036 inch wall thickness inconel tubing. Hot high pressure air
was supplied to the duct through the outer wall of the AENFTS test
section. Bleed-air traveled from left to right into the augmentor fuel
pump and thence into insulated piping to exit the test section. On the
actual engine, bleed-air flows through the duct in the same direction
though it enters from the engine and it reenters the engine through a
perforation at the augmentor fuel pump. Ventilation velocities were
measured by a pitot probe installed at a point 1 inch in front of and I
inch above the most upstream edge of the bleed duct along the center line
of the AENFTS (Fig. 20). This position was not directly behind any major
obstructions and hence did not represent an abnormally low local
ventilation velocity.
Ventilation air was supplied from the facility air storage bottle farm to
the high realism test article using the high-pressure, low-flow airflow
system except for those test conditions at 11/ft/sec velocity where the
34
IIp
iIi
35
high-pressure high-flow system was employed because the low-flow system
would not provide enough airflow to reach this velocity.
Due to the effect of tVe various clamps and obstructions in the high
realism test article it was anticipated that hot surface ignition
conditions would be different at different locations on the bleed--air
duct. Fcr this reazon a total of six stream and two spray fluid injection
locations were used in the high realism test phase (Fig. 21.). The spray
injection method used the same nozzle used in the simple duct tests, a
Wagner 621 flat spray nozzle, placed either upstream or dounstream of the
bleed duct. %tren the spray came from downstream, the nozzle was placed
six inches downustream of the aft end of the bleed duct. When the spray
came from upsturiam, the nozzle was placed six inches upstream of the its
upstream end. For both positions, the nozzle was located on the test
section centerline and the spray fan was aligned along the duct.
Preliminary tests made with the viewing window removed and the duct
unheated indicated thzt spray from either direction thoroughly wetted the
entire bleed duct. No attempt was made to determine to what degree the

ventilation airflow reduced this though the occurrence of ignitions at all
velocities demonstrated that fluid continued to strike some part of the
duct at all velocities. The fluids were generally sprayed at 8 ml/sec for
5 seconds.
There were six fluid stream locations. Fluid traveled from the fluid
reservoir where it was maintained at 100 psig through a micrometering
valve and then through one of six stainless steel tubes (0.070 inch I.D.)
to the stream location. The fluids streams were generally supplied at 2
ml/sec for 10 seconds through the stream tubes. This flowrate produced a
solid stream of fluid out of Zhe injection tube. The effect of
ventilation airflow velocity on the streams of fluid's ability to reach
the duct was not investigated but the momentum of the streams and the
narrow gaps (0.5 inch) between the stream tubes and the bleed duct made
any change caused by velocity unlikely. All tubes ended normal to the
bleed duct surface except for location 4 which was angled forward and
the engine side o' the test article, as far as possible from the hot bleed
duct. After each fluid stream injection, compressed air was blown through
the stainless steel tube so that the next stream injection would use fluid
at nacelle room temperature, rather than uncontrollably heated fluid in
the stainless steel tube.
Eight type K thermocouples were also tack-welded along the bleed-air duct
(Fig. 21) of the high realism test article. A plot of duct temperature at
the various thermocouple locations is shown in Figure 22. The bleed duct
the.mocouples were generally associated with fluid injection locations and
the MHSIT is reported by using the associated thermocouple temperature for
the stream injection location:
Stream location 1: The fluid was introduced onto a Harmon clamp that
joined the bleed duct to the bleed-air penetration fitting on the nacelle
side of the AENFTS. The associated thermocouple, THSI-l, was tack-welded
to the thick walled fitting. As the test progressed, it was found that
due to the thickness of the fitting, the surface temperature of the
fitting was relatively low and the temperature response was extremely

slow. Since the injection location was the least realistic and did not
exist in an actual F-16 nacelle, testing at this location was terminated.
Stream location 2: The fluid was introduced onto the bell shaped inlet to
the Inconel bleed duct. THSI-2 was attached to tlhe bell shape-d inlet as
well. THSI-3, tack-welded to the bleed duct several inches above bell-
shaped inlet, was not associated with any stre.m lccation. It was
employed reference duct temperature thermocouple throughout the test since
it was the hottest location. It was also used to report the MISIT for
spray since a fluid spray was location non-specific and it vas felt that
the hottest location on the duct most accurately represented the ignition
temperature for spray injection.
Stream location 3: The fluid was introduced onto the top of a horizontal
section of bare duct. THSI-4, tack-welded to the underside of the duct at
the same location was the associated thermocouple.
Stream location 4: The fluid was introduced onto the aft (downstream)
face of a vertical section of bare duct. THSI-4 was the thermocouple
closest to this location also.
Stream location 6: The fluid was introduced onto a Harmon clamnp between
the bleed duct and the augmentor fuel pump controller butterfly valve.
THSI-7 was located on the duct upstream of the change in duct diameters
for this clamp. THSI-8 was tack-welded to the inlet of the augmentor fuel
pump just downstream of the stream tube.
Three different video cameras were used to view the high realism test
article during testing (Fig. 23). It was possible to detect that ignition

had occurred but not all parts of the the bleed duct were visible and it
was not possible to determine the exact ignition location. Also asaisting
in the detection of a fire was an ultraviolet fire detector made by
Graviner, Ltd. (Ref. 9). This detector was mounted next to the video
camera placed in the test section side window downstream of the bleed duct
where it consistently detected the presence of fires in the test secion.
Another camera viewed the bleed duct through a test section side window on
the upstream side of the high realism test article. The third camera
viewed the inside of the AENFTS through an edge window on the top of the
test section. These three cameras and the UV detector made it possible to
determine whether or not there was ignition from the control room.
Extensive leak checks were performed on the high realism test article in
order to ensur': that no bleed-air would leak from the bleed-air duct and
alter the normal ventilation airflow patterns and change local ventilation
velocities. To ensure that there were no leaks in the bleed duct
installation; the duct was nre.qssrizPed with cold and hot air. smoke
generators were employed and visual checks were made with yarn tufts.
Critical variables in this test were the duct temperature (THSI-1 through
THSI-8), ventilation air velocity, ventilation air temperature (TAIR-1),
ventilation air pressure (PNACIN) and test fluid type, injection method,
flowrate and duration of injection. Duct temperatures and ventilation air
conditions vere logged to disk on the facility computer while test fluid
variables were set prior to the test and were logged on a hand log data
sheet. The computer acquired data was logged just before the injection of
the test fluid, and the MHSIT measured in this test program was an initial
duct temperature and not the temperature of the duct at the time of
ignition. This does not compromise the value of the test data, however,
as this initial temperature is comparable to the engine compartment
temperatures which can bf- specified by an aircraft designer.
Duct temperature vs. time data for selezted simple duct tests were
acquired using a Honeywell Visicorder strip chart recorder. Figure 24

shows the temperature data recorded for each of the 8 duct thermocouples
during the 5 seconds when 5606 was being sprayed onto the duct, during the
next 1.5 second when the hot air was bringing the duct back up to
temperature and briefly following ignition (the point of Ignition having
been determined from visual observation of the test along with review of
the video tape record following the test). The th rmocouples most
directly in the path of the spray, those at positions 4, 5 and 7, show the
greatest temperature reduction during the 5 seconds of 5606 spray and
those on the sides and back face of the duct are relatively unaffected by
the spray.
Also logged by hand was whether or not there was ignition, the ignition
time delay (time elapsed between beginning of injection and the ignition
of the fluid) and the video tape time, a record of the location of the
test on the tape. A closed circuit TV camera with a zoom lens was mounted
on a tilt and pan mechanism on the top of the fuel cart. During fire
tests, the camera was focused on the viewing window in the test section
adjacent to the test fire zone. Its output signal was observed ou a TV
monitor on the AENFTS control panel to allow the test operator to observe
ignitions and assure safe conduct of the test. A video cassette recorder
(VCR) received and recorded the signal from the TV camera. The video of
the simple duct tests would show the spray injection pattern, smoke
furmation arid the ignition of the fluid. The video tape of the high
realism tests only revealed the reflection of the occurrence of a fire,

The video system was fairly low speed (30 frames/second, 2 fields/frame)
and ignitions occurred too fast to make precise visual observati.,ns of the
beginning of ignition. The video tape did provide a backup of the
ignition delay timer.
Ignition delay time was measured by the fluid injection system timer that
started when an electrical signal was sent to the injection system ball
valve and ended when the UV fire detectoL unit detected a fire or the test
operator observed a fire on the video displays and pressed a switch.

These were subsequently manually corrected for the delay between the
signal being sent to the ball valve and the fluid's first contact with the
duct based on earlier manual calibration for each drip location. These
ignition delay data are tabulated in Appendix A.
system (Fig. 25). Lists of the temperature variable names and ModComp
data channels (Table I) and the pressure variable names and data channels
(Table 2) are included in this section. These millivolt values were
converted to engineering unit data for the temperature and pressure at the
AENFTS flowmeters and used to calculate flowrates and ventilation
velocities in the test section. The airflow equations for the venturis
are based on the Compressed Gas Handbook (Ref. 10) and those for the sonic
nozzles are based on data from their manufacturer. This information was
immediately used to update the AENFTS display terminals (approximately
once every 10 seconds) and by activating a data log switch the operator
could send this data to a line printer and also log it on disk. The
AENFTS facility computer is a 16 bit, general purpose digital computer for
real time multi--programming applications with 64K RAM memory manufactured
by Modular Computer Systems Inc. (ModComp) of Ft. Lauderdale, Fl.

3.0 TEST PROCEDURE
A standard test procedure was followed throughout the hot surface ignition
test program.
At the beginning of the day, approximately I hour was required to heat the
duct to test temperatures. Between injections, however, reasonable steady
temperature conditions were reached in 2 to 5 minutes.
49
In this test program, the duct temperature was started from a high
temperature and was lowered as ignitions were obtained. Once the duct
temperature was high enough to ignite the test fluid, the duct temperature
was reduced 50°F and the fluid was reinjected with all other variables
such as ventilation velocity, fluid flowrate, etc. held constant. This
process was repeated until ignition did not occur. Two additional
injections were then performed at that duct temperature. When a bleed
duct temperature was reached at which three tests could be conducted
without ignition occurring, testing at those ventilation air conditions
and test fluid conditions considered to be completed.
THE MINIMUM HOT SURFACE IGNITION TEMPERATURE (MHSIT) WAS THEN DEFINED TO
BE THE LOWEST BLEED DUCT TEMPERATURE THAT HAD PRODUCED IGNITION. BECAUSE
THIS TEMPERATURE WAS GENERALLY 50°F ABOVE THE TEMPERATURE WHERE 3 TESTS
WITHOUT IGNITION HAD OCCURRED AND THE DUCT THERMOCOUPLE TEMPERATURE

-75 F. Ventilation air variables were normally held constant for 30
seconds at the end of each injection to ensure that there would he no
ignition in that particular test. This allowed for any normal ignition
delays. Data from a typical series of these tests (83282 stream onto high
realism test article at location 3, duct temperature measured at location
5, variation is velocity) is shown in Figure 26.
At the completion of a day of testing, test data on the hand log data
sheets and ModComp disk were combined. It was then possible to plot
fire/no fire data using duct temperature on the Y-axis and ventilation air
velocity (or temperature or pressure) on the X-axis as shown in Figure 26.
The symbols used in this plot are plus sign for ignition, and an open
square for no ignition.
Data of this type are presented in Appendix A for all the tests conducted
in this program. Ignition delay data are also tabulated in Appendix A.

For this test program, the minimum hot surface ignition temperature
(MHSIT) is defined as the lowest temperature to produce igrkition that was
above the temperature where three tests occurred without ignition. For
example, at 2 ft/sec on Figure 26, the MHSIT was approximately 8500F.
MHSIT data for the five test fluids was obtained in this way throughout
the test program.

4.0 TEST RESULTS
All simple duct tests were performed prior to installing the high realism
test article. The simple duct tests enabled comparison to past data and
the study of hot suLface ignition test data in a uncomplicated
environment. In the clean AEWFTS test section the ventilation velocity
was measured and assumed to be uniform at the duct compared to the
obstruction filled high realism test article which would have areas with
velocity both above and below the average. The simple duct was also
visible through an AENFTS window and spray patterns, nacelle ventilation
flow patterns and ignitions were directly observable.
A test matrix (Table 3), summarizes the three groups of simple duct tests
that were performed during this program. Two airplane fluids, JP-4 and
5606 were sprayed on the simple duct from upstream in the test section at
8 ml/sec for 5 seconds. Ventilation air pressure and temperature were
held as constant as possible at 14.4 psia and 1200F, respectively.
Ventilation air velocity was varied from 0 to 8 ft/sec.
The Simple Duct tests were organized into three groups in the test matrix.

method on the MHSIT. A cushion loop clamp was placed on the simple duct
where it was contacted by the fluid spray so that the effect of such a
device (acting as a flow obstruction and/or fuel vapor trap) on HHSIT
could be evaluated. The simple duct was built so that it could be heated
either with electrical resistance heaters or with hot-air at I lb/sec from
the AENFTS bleed-air heating system.
All four configurations for the simple duct (air or resistance heating,
bare duct or duct with clamp) were tested with both JP-4 and 5606. The
results of these tests are shown in Figures 27, 28, 29 and 30 and
summarized in Table 4. For these tests, the AENFTS test section was

located in the horizontal position (Fig. 16) so that it represented the
lower third of an aircraft engine compartment.
The third group of tests addressed (3) the effect of duct orientation on
the MHSIT. Here the AENFTS test section was rotated to the vertical
position, representing one-third of the right side of an aircraft engine
compartment. Only 5606 was used in this group of tests. The data
acquired with this configuration was compared to the 5606 air-.heated bare-
duct data from previous tests.
The effect of ventilation air velocity on MHSIT for 5606, for the air--
heated bare duct, air-heated duct with clamp, resistance heated bare duct
and resistance heated duct with clamp is shown in Figures 27. Similar
data for JP-4 is shown in Figure 28. General Dynamics MHSIT data (Ref. 4)
for 5606 and JP-4 for their resistance heated bare duct and resistance
heated duct with clamp are also included on these figures.
With the resistance heated duct, thermocouple 3 was chosen to report duct
temperature in all cases because it was consistently the hottest location
monitored. There was little temperature variation on the air-heated
simple duct so thermocouple 3 was again selected. It was felt that the
highest temperature on the duct was closest to the MHSIT because the
sprayed fluid teached all parts of the hot duct completely and ignition
was likely to occur at the hottest point. As noted in Section 2.2.1, a
different criteria was employed to select the reference thermocouple for
the General Dynamics test data. The thermocouple with the consistently
lowest reading was employed. As also noted in Section 2.2.1, it could be
anticipated that this difference in reference thermocouple selection
criteria would result in the General Dynamics MHSIT's being lower than
those mecsured in the current program (from 50°F lower at 1 ft/sec to
nearly 200°F lower at 8 ft/sec).
The presence of the cushion clamp lovered the MHSIT for 5606 for the air-
0 0
heated and the resistance-heated cases, from 100 F to 200 F. This was
probably because the clamp held the fluid next to the duct longer,
allowing the fluid more time to heat than with the bare duct where it was
blown away before it could ignite. The General Dynamics data for 5606,
however, indicates very little effect of the clamp on MHSIT, except at 2
ft/sec where the MHSIT decreased by 200OF when the clamp was present.

the reference temperature to define the MHSIT's, did not experience the
ubstantial cooling and reheating noted at position 4.
Figure 31 shows that the air-heated duct had a higher heating rate than
the resistance-heated duct which led to a smaller temperature drop at
position 4 when the relatively cold fluid was sprayed onto the duct and
also to a faster temperature recovery. Because it was generally based on
a manual record of a visual observation, accuracy of the ignition delay
measurement, estimated at +0.25 seconds, is probably inadequate to
conclude anything from the ignitions times noted on the plot.
There was a recurring problem with leakage of bleed-air during the simple
duct testing. Leaks in the bleed duct assembly were discovered when the
test section viewing window was opened on three different occasions.
These leaks occurred only at the welds on the duct about 12 inches
downstream from the target area (the location is noted in Detail 2 of
F i amu rnro 16 U4 t1
U. th

nA -. , rn ~and 5 1 lktrsnn of ambln te-nhnatre
bleed air flowing through the duct, the leakage could be manually felt no
further than 3 inches from the leak. On each occasion that leakage was
discovered, repairs were made before testing resumed. Because it is
impossible to identify when the leakage recurred, however, this must be
interpreted as a minor source of uncertainty in the quality of all of the
simple duct data. (This problem was permanently corrected prior to the
high realism phase of hot surface ignition testing.)
Some of the same trends seen with 5606 can be seen with JP-4 (Fig. 28).
No data for the air-heated bare-duct is shown because there were no
ignitions of JP-4 spray, up to the facility maximum duct temperature of
0
1350 F. Hence, JP-4 spray on an air-heated bare-duct has a MHSIT greater
than 1350°F at ventilation velocities less than 8 ft/sec.
The cushion clamp had less effect on JP-4's MHSIT than on 5606's MHSIT.
As with the General Dynamics tests, the resistance heated duct data shows
little or no effect of the clamp on MHSIT. Above 4 ft/sec the current
resistance-heated duct MHSIT continues to increase as the velocity
increases. The General Dynamics MHSIT remained constant. The lowest
63
MHSIT was again found vith the air-heated duct with clamp. No ignition
was observed at velocities greater than 4 ft/sec with the air heated duct,
again probably because the MHSIT was above the 1350°F maximum temperature
available.
The MHSIT's determined when JP-4 and 5606 were sprayed onto the air-heated
duct are compared an Figure 29. JP-4 ignited at higher temperatures than
5606, probably becauae of its higher volatility. This allowed it to
vaporize faster and hence required less time in contact with the hot duct
for ignition to occur. This general trend in MHSIT was demonstrated
throughout the test program for other fluids as well as with JP-4 and
5606; the more volatile the fluid, the higher its MHSIT.
the MHSIT for 5606 increase about 250°F for the duct with clamp and 400°F
for the bare duct. This large rise in the 5606 bare duct MHSIT actually
causes the ignition temperatures for 5606 bare duct to be equal to the JP-
4 MHSIT at 6 and 8 ft/sec. The MHSIT for JP-4 appears to depend less on
the ventilation velocity than 5606.
The effect of test section and duct orientation on MHSIT was also examined
in the simple duct test. 5606 was sprayed on the vertical air-heated
bare-duct and the MHSIT's were to be compared to the horizontal duct data
that was taken earlier in the test program. While fires were ignited at
1, 2 and 4 ft/sec in the horizontal test, no ignitions at all were
recorded in the vertical test.
The High Realism Tests were intended to simulate hot surface ignition
scenarios in an F-16 engine compartment. To accomplish this the simple
duct test article was removed and the F-16 nacelle simulator, containing
an actual F-16 bleed air duct and other engine components was installed in
the AENFTS test section. As illustrated in Table 5, the effect of many
engine compartment variables on the MHSIT of the five test fluids (5606,
83282, 7808, JP-4 and JP-8) were studied in the high realism tests.
The high realism tests vere classified into two general groups: (1)
conditions of fluid injection and (2) the effects of ventilation air
conditions on MHSIT. The first dealt with the effect of injection
location, flowrate and duration on MHSIT. The second group of tests
concerned thj effect of ventilation air pressure, temperature and velocity
on the MHSIT of each fluid at stream and spray locations selected from
those tried during the first group of tests.
Because the objective of this test series was realistic stimulation of the
F-16 engine compartment, the AENFTS test section was installed in its
vertical position. The results obtained with the simple duct test
article, however, had indicated that horizontal placement of the AENFTS
test section resulted in the lowest MHSIT's than vertical placement.
Hence, although the bleed air duct of the realistic test article had both
vertical and horizontal sections, lower MHSIT values may have been
observed had the AENFTS test section been installed in the horizontal
position for these tests.

4.2.1 Conditions of Fluid Injection
There were two fluid spray locations (from upstream of the bleed duct and
from downstream of the bleed duct) and six fluid stream locations where
the five fluids were injected. The fluid injection locations are
identified in Figure 21. The initial tests were conducted at a
ventilation airflow velocity of 1 ft/sec, temperature of 120OF and
pressure of 14.4 psia. The purpose of these tests was to determine the
injection location at which the fluid ignited at the lowest temperature.
The fluids were then injected at these locations during subsequent hot
surface ignition testing.
The results of these tests are summarized in Figure 32. The MHSIT for
each fluid is plotted versus injection location. Usually, 5606 and 83282
had the lowest MHSIT's, especially at stream location 3 (DL-3). Stream
location 3 was at the top of a bend in the bleed-air duct, a horizontal
bare duct surface similar to that used in the bare-duct simple duct tests.
The thermocouple at position 3 (THSI-4) was the closest to stream location
3 and was used to report the duct temperature at this location. 7808 also
had a minimum MHSIT at stream location 3. HencE, later testing in this
program for 5606, 83282 and 7808 occurred at stream location 3.
83282 spray from downstream also ignited at a lower temperature than the
othpr fluids. llence. further testing was performed using 83282 spray from
downstream. This spray location was also used for the spray comparison
for all fluids in later tests. Thermocouple location 3 generally read the
highest temperature on the bleed duct and since the spray contacted many
locations on the duct, it was felt that the hottest temperature would most
closely represent the MHSIT. For this reason, thermocouple location 3 was
used to report duct temperature on the high realism bleed duct for all
spray tests.
Stream location 5 was used as the fluid stream testing location for JP-4
and JP-8. While it was not the minimum igniting location for these tv-c
fluids, location 1 having provided lower ignition temperatures for JP-4,
it was felt that the thick bleed duct fitting existing there (which was

not a part of the F-16 nacelle) caused this to be an unrealistic location.
Stream location 5 was at the bottom of a duct bend where a cushion loop
clamp has been placed. This was similar to the horizontal duct with clamp
in the simple duct tests. Thermocouple 5 (THSI-5), the closest
thermocouple to stream location 5, was used to report the duct temperature
at this location.
Figure 32 indicates that 5606 had the lowest MHSIT of the five fluids at
most locations. In order of increasing MHSIT, 83282, JP-8, 7808 and JP-4
followed. In all these tests except for spray from downstream, 83282
ignited at higher MHSIT's than 5606. Generally the fluid stream ignited
at lower temperatures than the fluid spray, an exception being 83282 spray
from downstream which ignited at the same MHSIT as 83282 stream at
location 3.
The effect of stream flowrate on MHSIT was also examined. 5606 was
injected on location 3 at 1, 2, 3 ml/sec for 10 seconds at a ventilation
velocity of 1 ft/sec. Table 6 shows the MHSIT for those stream flowrates.
Also included in Table 6 is MHSIT data for 2 ml/sec for 40 seconds.
Neither the stream flowrates evaluated nor the injection duration seemed
to effect the MUSIT significantly.
The flowrate and the injection duration seem only to effect air/fluid
mixing characteristics at these fairly low flowrates. They appear to have
had little effect on the MHSIT, probably because the duct temperature
response did not differ as the flowratk• were changed these small amounts.
If the flowrates were increased enocfh to quench the entire duct
significantly, the MHSIT probably would have been higher.

4.2.2 Th- Effect of Ventilation Air Conditions on MHSIT
The first part of this group of tests dealt with the MHSIT's determined
for the 5 fluids with spray injection when the ventilation air pressure,
tempu-ature and velocity were varied. In addition, the effect of a
baffle, installed to change the airflow dynamics in the test article, was
investigated. A test where no heat was supplied to the bleed duct and the
effect of elevated ventilation airflow temperature on the MHSIT of 83282
was also conducted. A similar group of tests was run next using a fluid
stream at location 3 (5606, 83282, 7808) or location 5 (JP-4, JP-8)
instead of a spray (See Figure 21 for location identification). A summary
of the effects of ventilation air pressure, temperature and velocity on
MBSIT is provided in Tables 7, 8 and 9.
4.2.2.1 Spray
The first ventilation air variable tested during the spray test was
ventilation air pressure (Fig. 34). All fluids were sprayed at 8 ml/sec
for 5 seconds. Design limitation of the AENFTS prevented employment of
the same ventilation airflow velocities for the high pressure (ram
simulation) and low pressure (altitude simulation) tests, complicating
direct comparison between high and low pressure MUSIT data. High pressure
test conditions were obtained by closing the 24 inch valve downstream of
the diffuser section and throttling the airflow exiting the test section
with the 8 inch valve leading to the AENFTS ejector. There was sufficient
leakage around these valves that it required a minimum airflow velocity of
11 ft/sec to reach 20 psia in the test section. The low pressure test
conditions employed the AENFTS ejector system, again with the 24 inch
valve closed and the 8 inch valve employed for downstream throttling. To
reach 5 psia in the test section, a maximum airflow of 2 ft/sec could be
handled by the ejector.

psia where the MHSIT's for all fluids decreased as the pressure increased.
The IHSIT for 83282 spray from downstream decreased nearly 400°F as the
ventilation air pressure was increased from 14.4 to 20 psia, in contrast
to the other fluid's behavior where the differences were closer to 100oF.
The next variable that was examined in these tests was the effect of
ventilation air temperature on MHSIT for all five fluids (Fig. 35). The
MHSIT was determined for each of the fluids at ventilation air
temperatures of 120 0 F, 300OF and 600 0 F, measured at location 3, just
upstream of the heated bleed duct (Fig. 21). In all cases, the MHSIT's
decreased as the ventilation air temperature was increased. This was
probably largely due to the ventilation air-heating the fluid prior to its
contacting thE duct. This pre-heating of the air/combustible-fluid
mixture reduced the heat transfer required from the duct to reach its
ignition temperature. Hence ignition occurred with lower duct
tpmnpratiurps. The five fluids seemed to be affected differently; 7808
showed relatively little change (about 1000 F) in MHSIT as ventilation air
temperature was increased, as did 5606 (about 1501F). Conversely, JP-4
and JP-8 spray displayed a large decrease (400°F to 500°F) in MHSIT as the
ventilation air temperature increased from 120OF to 600 0 F.
The HHSIT for 83282 at an air temperature of 300OF was 150OF lower than
its MHSIT at an air temperature of 120 0 F. When the air temperature was
increased to 6000F, however, the 83282 would consistently ignite even when
the bleed air duct was cooler than the ventilation airflow. Since the AIT
0
of 83282 is 670 F, it appeared that a situation had been encountered where
a hot surface ignition temperature was lower than the fluid's AIT. Hence
a second series of tests was performed that used hot ventilation air but
no bleed air duct heating.
These tests were begun with the indicated ventilation air temperature at
600t4'. Again, a 5 second spray of 83282 at 8 ml/sec ignited with no hot
air being supplied to the bleed air duct. Next the air temperature was
decreas2d incrementally until three fluid sprays tests had occurred
without ignition at a ventilation air temperature of 480 0 F.

The duct temperature measured at location 3 provided erratic data during
this test. Substituting data from the thermocouple at location 6, which
normally provided similar duct temperature information to that at location
3, it appeared that the duct was normally only about 80F to 10OF cooler
than the airflow surrounding it (Fig. 36).
The duct temperature measured at the last test condition where an ignition
had occurred, 5101F, was concluded to be 83282's MHSIT under these
conditions. Before reaching specific conclusions about 83282's behavior
under these conditions, however, some additional uncertainties must be
considered:
Hetice The test results indicate that 83282 actually ignited in a situation
where the air temperature was about 570°F and the duct temperature was
about 530°F and that this specific batch of fluid had an AIT (per both
ASTH D 2155 and E 659) more that 100°F higher than existed, either in the

air or on the duct during this test. The Reference 3 tests also found
83282 to have a hot surface ignition temperature below its AIT, 6301F
(Figure 1) compared to an ASTM D 2155 AIT of 657 0 F.
Figure 37 shows the effect of ventilation velocity on the MHSIT for all
five fluids when they were sprayed from downstream. This test was
performed at a ventilation air pressure of 14.4 psia and a ventilation air
temperature of 120 0 F. MHSIT data was acquired with 83282 at velocities of
0, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 11 ft/sec while the MHSIT data for the other fluids
were acquired only at 1, 2 and 11 ft/sec. 83282's MHSIT remained fairly
constant at about 750°F to 8000P for ventilation velocities of 0 to 6
ft/sec and increased to 1000 0 F at 8 ft/sec and 1220OF at 11 ft/sec. The
MHSIT's found for 5606 at 2 and 11 ft/sec are similar to those found for
83282. As was found during the simple duct testing (Fig 27), all five
fluids show the same general trend of having a "dip" in their MHSIT at
some intermediate velocity and having a substantially higher MHSIT at the
highest velocities tested. Insufficient data was acquired to establish
exactly where the "dip" occurs with 5606, 7808, JP-4 and JP-8. As with
the simple duct testing, however, the 83282 MHSIT's are fairly constant
from 0 to 4 ft/sec and begin to increase significantly beyond this point.

ventilation air velocity was 11 ft/sec. The actual velocity at the hot
bleed duct was proLably significantly lower but a pitot probe measurement
was not made. The temperature was 120OF and the pressure was 14.4 psia.
The MHSIT for each fluid, sprayed from downstream, both vith and without
the baffle, is shown in Figure 38. The baffle reduced the local
ventilatiun velocity at the duct enough to lower the MHSIT's from 50°F to
0
200 F.
4.2.2.2 Stream
Two stream locations were used for testing in this phase of the program:
(1) Stream location 3, which resembled the horizontal bare duct in the
simple duct tests, the location that produced ignitions at the lowest
temperature for 5606. 83282 and 7808 in earlier testing. This was again
used with 5606, 83282 and 7808. (2) Stream location 5, which resembled
the horizontal duct with clamp in the simple duct tests, (along with
Stream location 1, which was not considered to be representative of the
duct installation in the aircraft) had produced ignition a' the lowest
temperature for JP-4 in earlier tests (Fig. 32). This location was used
for JP-4 and JP-8 testing. At both of these locations, fluid streams were
injezted at 2 ml/sec for 10 seconds.
The effect of ventilation air pressure on MHSIT for all the fluids at
these stream locations is shown in Figure 40. The hollow symbols are
MHSIT data for 14.4, 10 and 5 psia at a velocity of 2 ft/sec. The solid
symbols represent the MHSIT for the fluids at 14.4 and 20 )sia ventilation

With 5606, 83282 and 7808, unlike the tests employing spray from
downstream, ignitions were obtained at air pressures below ambient as well
as at ambient pressure and 20 psia. The MHSIT's of 5606 and 7808 were
more sensitive to the pressure change below than above ambient pressure.
The decrease in MHSIT for 5606 as ventilation air pressure was increased
from 14.4 tO 20 psia was only about 50°F while decreasing the ventilation
air pressure below ambient affected the MHSIT much more strongly. Between
ambient and 10 psia the MHSIT was increased 350°F; between 10 psia and 5
psia it was increased an additional 20C°F. Similarly, for 7808 the change
in MHSIT when ventilation air pressure was raised from 14.4 to 20 psia was
not as largf (100 0 F) as the increase in MHSIT 'hen the ventilation air
pressure was lowered from 14.4 to 10 psia (250 F). 0
The MHSIT of 83282 was affected by changes in pressure both above and
below ambient pressure. Raising the pressure from 14.4 to 20 psia lowred
the MHSIT from 1200°F to 850°F while lowering the pressure from 14.4 to 10
psia increased the HHSIT 300OF and decreasing the pressurE further to 5
psia increased the MHSIr 0
another 200 F. Since sprays of these fluids
could not be ignited at pressures lower than ambient, these data indicate
that the chance of hot surface ignition of fluids is greatly reduced at
altitude when low pressures exist in a ventilated engine compartment.
4
The effect of increasing the ventilation air pressure on the MHSIT of J3k-
and JP-8 was not as pronounced as the effect seen on the hydraulic fluids
and the lubricating oil. The MHSIT for JP-3 actually increased slightly
when the ventilation air pressure was increased from 14.4 to 20 psia but
the increase was within the uncertainty of the temperature measurements
0
(425 F). When the ventilation air pressure was decreased to simulate
altitude, JP-4 fires occurred at 10 psia, at a slightly higher duct
temperature than at ambient, but did not occur up to the facility maximum
of 1350°F at 5 psia. With JP-8, no fires occurred at either 10 or 5 psia,
up to the 1350OF maximum available temperature.
88
Neyt, the effect of air temperature on the MHSIT of 5606, 83282 and 7808
stream at location 3 and JP-4 and JP-8 at location 5 was examined (Fig.
41). Ventilation velocity was set at 2 ft/sec and the ventilation air
pressure was ambient (14.4 psia). The MHSIT of both 5606 and 83282
decreased with increasing ventilation air temperature, as anticipated, but
the MHSIT for 7808 increased slightly as the air temperature was increased
from 130OF to 300OF before being reduced substantially as the air
temperature was increased to 600 0 F. This test at 300OF was repeated
because these results were unexpected. The same results were obtained on
the second try.
In this test 83282 was observed to ignite at a MHSIT of 600°F when the
ventilation air temperature was 600 0 F. As in the earlier spray tests,
this MHSIT was below the reported AIT for 83282. Again, this MHSIT was
the last target temperature where ignition did occur prior to three tests
where Ignition did not occur. As with the spray tests with 600°F air,
radiation losses led to thermocouple errors of about 60°F in these tests.
Hence the ait t!mperature waS ab.-o t .. th1 fl1i{d, ATT at the
time of this last ignition.
Variation of the ventilation air temperature did not greatly affect the
MHSIT of JP-4 and JP-8 streams. The JP-4 MHUIT remained almost constant
for all air temperatures tested. The JP-8 MHSIT decreased and then
increased as the air temperature was increased.

Filure 42. Effect of Va on MHSIT with Flud Stream
91
The effect of installing the baffle in the test article to reduce local
airflow velocities around the bleed duct on the MHSIT's of all five fluids
is shown in Figure 43. The NHSIT's with the baffle installed are
significantly lower for 5606 and 83282 consistent with these fluid's
MHSIT's sensitivity to velocity (Fig. 42). A much smaller reduction in
MHSIT is seen with the baffle installed for 7808, JP-4 and JP-8, again
consistent with the insensitivity of these fluids's MHSIT's to change in
ventilation airflow velocity. Installation of the baffle reduced the
airflow around the bleed duct enough that the hot bleed duct often heated
the ventilation air (probably from 120OF to about 300 0 F) before injection
could take place. Hence part of the cause of the lower MHSIT seen with
the baffle In place was probably the elevation of the ventilation air
temperatures.
Test data acquired with stream and spray fluid introduction to the high
realism test artic'le Wd5 COFpre andt:
CLIffrc in M.HSIT duc to the
method of fluid introduction were examined. Stream injection of the fluid
consisted of a solid stream from an 0.070 inch ID tube and traveled only
about 0.5 inch before the stream contacted the bleed duct. In contrast,
spray injection utilized a flat spray nozzle placed about 6 inches from
the bleed duct.
The effect of ventilation air nressure on the MHSIT of the test fluids is
shown in Figures 44 and 45. The MHSIT of 83282 for both spray and stream
appears to be strongly affected by pressure. MHSIT's of 5606 and 7808
seem to be affected less. For these fluids, however, the MHSIT for stream
injection at both 14.4 psia and 20 psia is lower than the MHSIT for spray
injection at those pressures. This was consistent with the fact that
sprays of neither fluid would ignite at 0
the maximum (1350 F) duct
temiperature available at pressures below ambient while streams of both
would. The MHSIT's of JP-4 and JP-8 were less affected by pressure.
Again the MHSIT found with stream injection were lower than those found
with spray.

provides most of the heat to raise the fluid streams's temperature to its
ignition temperature. The JP-8 data is very similar, showing a large
effect of air temperature on NHSIT for spray while a much smaller affect
is shown for a flixid stream.
The effects of ventilation airflov velocity on MHSIT's for 5606 and 83282
with the two methods of fluid delivery are shoin in Figur. 4q. HHSIT data
for 82282 show minor differences betwaen stream and spray. With 5606 the
differences between stream and spray from downstream are also relatively
minor, ti,,ugh the MHSIT's for spray from upstream are higher at all
veiocities tested. The effect of the velocity on the MHSIT for both
injection methods is similar. A similaL comparison of the two methods of
fluid delivery for JP-4 and JP-8 is shown in Figure 49.
A compariscn of the MHSIT's measured for a spray delivery of 5606 and JP-4

With the JP-4 comparison shown on Figure 50, the downstream spray high-
realism test article data again indicates lower MHSIT's than any of the
simple duct tests. The difference is smaller than with 5606, however,

about 100 F.
1. The bare duct ignited 5606 at higher temperatures than when a cushion
clamp was added. This was probably due to the clamp holding the fluid
next to the hot duct for a longer time, allowing more heating of the
fluid. The addition of a the clamp did not affect the MHSIT for JP-4
spray onto the resistance heated duct, however. JP-4 being more volatile,
probably vaporized almost immediately with or without the clamp and was
not held against the duct longer by the clamp. Because no ignition
occurred when the JP-4 was sprayed onto the air-heated bare-duct at the
.......
m•~m, , terMper.ture .. •la but did wheii thv Clamp was added, it
appears that the addition of the clamp to the air-heated duct lowered the
MHSIT for JP-4.
2. Lower IHSIT's for both JP-4 and 5606 were generally measured with the
air-heated duct than with the resistance heated duct. This was probably
mostly due to the higher heating rate available with the air-heated duct.

increased from 1 to 8 ft/sec. JP-4's NHSIT was not as affected by
velocity.
4. At low ventilation velocities, the MHSIT for 5606 was about 200°F
lover thai, the MHSIT for JP-4 whether measured with the resistance or air-
heated duct. At ventilation velocities of 6 to 8 ft/sec the MHSIT's of
the two fluids were about the same.
it The injection location was found to strongly affect the MHSIT's in the
high realism tests. A variety of factors, including the local ventilation
air velocity and temperature and the heat transfer coefficients of the
particular fluid contact site on the duct affected what MHSIT was
determined for the fluid. It was found that a stream onto a horizontal
bare section of the duct ignited 5606, 83282 and 7808 at the lowest
temper-tures. It was found that a stream onto a horizontal section of the
duct, where a clamp was located, ignited JP-4 and JP-8 at the lowest
temperatures. It was also found that spray from downstream also igna ed
83282 at a relatively low temperature. For the range of spray and stream
flovrates that were Investigated, little effect of injection flowrate or
duration was observed.
2. The MHSIT's of all five test fluids, both spray and stream, increased
dramatically as ventilation air pressure was levered. Hence, MHSIT'S are
significantly increased for aircraft at altitude,
5. The effect of ventilation air temperature on the MHSIT of JP-4 and JP-
8 was different for spray and stream fluid introduction. High ventilation
air temperatures dramatically decreased the MHSIT of JP-4 and JP-8 spray
while effecting the MHSIT's for stream introduction only slightly. This
was probably because the spray droplets were preheated in heated air
before they made contact with the hot duct while the fluid stream had less
time for preheating before it struck the hot surface.
8. The high realism test article with its associated clutter gave lower
values of MHSIT than the simple duct test article. This difference may
have been even greater if the AENFTS test section had been horizontal
during testing with the high realism test article.
104
should then be reduced by at least 150OF to arrive at the maximum safe
design temperature. (Note: Elevated fluid temperatures and large hot
surfaces (engine case) were not considered in the above suggested
0
reduction of at least 150 F)
3. The Graviner UV optical fire detector unit which was employed with
both the simple duct and the high realism test articles continued to
perform throughout the entire test program without problems. Because its
intended 1 second response time tended to be slower than the test
operator's visual response to the fire on the console video monitor it was
not normally the first indication that a fire had ignited. During some
situations, however, where the fire was small, or the viewing window was
obscured by soot, it was the first indication observed. No change in its
sensitivity was observed during this program--even when compared to its
performance when first installed in the AENFTS in 1984.

5.0 ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION OF THE RESULTS
In this section the main findings presented in Section 4 are analyzed and
interpreted in light of the key processes involved in hot surface
ignition. To do this, reference is made to the preliminary and
approximate analyses of sprays and streams, presented in Appendices D and
E, respectively. These analyses were formulated specifically to help
identify the relative importance of various concurrent processes and their
contributions to the test results. Also, they form a basis on which
modeling effort can be carried out in the future.
phase heat transfer in the duct boundary layer, droplet heating and
vaporization and chemical kinetics of the ignition reactions.
For simplicity, the analysis focuses on the case of a single bare duct
instead of the complex geometry of the high realism tests. Also, no
attempt was made to calibrate the analysis using test data. Thus, the
analysis is very crude, but still, it allows approximate predictions of
minimum hot surface ignition te.2mperatures, MISIT's. As expected, the
numerical predictions are not accurate, but the predicted trends are in
reasonable agreement with test data in most cases. Furthermore, the
analysis identifies the relative importance of the various processes thus
enabling interpretation of the results.

5.1.1 Predicted Droplet Behaviors for the Five Fluids
0 for 5606, 83282 and 7808, the droplets are much larger (in the
range of 180 to 250 microns) mainly because of the higher
viscosities of these fluids. These larger droplets decelerate
more slowly and impact the duct at a high velocity and high Weber
number (suggesting that these droplets may shatter upon impact.)

properties was found in the literature. Similar comparisons for the other
fluids cannot be presented because kinetic data for their ignition
reactions could not be located. See Appendix C).
The high realism tests are more complicated than this simplified analysis.
Trends in the dependance of the MHSITs on ventilation air parameters can
be observed (Figs. 50 to 52). Note that:

only larger droplets will reach the surface (while the smaller ones will
be entrained above and away from the duct in the natural convection plume
around the hot duct). Since Vn is of the order of I to 3 ft/sec, this
effect is anticipated at Va = 0 to 2 ft/sec and should disappear at higher
Va•
Albc note: The analysis predicts that higher MHSITs are required with
larger drv'plets, although the effects of Vn is not included (explicitly)
in the analysis such inclusion is recommended in future work.
Key unknowns in analyzing the above situation are the details of the
boiling phenomenon, a very complex subject even for non-reacting fluids.
113
To answer the above questions, first, an attempt was made to measure the
temperature time history at the duct surface Immediately below the
injection point of a stream. The measurement was not successful because
of the clutter in the nacelle. (This should be done in the future on
simple duct-type experiments).
Second, the literature was searched for data on the boiling behaviors of
aircraft fluids of interest. No directly pertinent data for either the
above configuration or even the sinpler case of a boiling liquid pool was
found. Accordingly, estimates were made of the boiling regimes for each
fluid and for the test conditions in this study (by indirect means as
presented in Appendix E).
The results are very approximate and require direct verification in future
work. Still, they suggest the following physical picture for the case at
hand. As liquid flows over the hot plate, Its temperature rises but the
fluid remains subcooled. Vapors are formed only very near the surface
where a very thin layer of fluid reaches the saturation temperature. The
vapors rise through and condense In the liquid. The applicable regimes
appear to be mainly subcooled film boiling for all the fluids of interest
except for 83282, where subcooled nucleate boiling and liquid wetting of
the duct also occurs. (See Figs. E-3 to E-7 in Appendix E).
At the edge of the spreading liquid film, the produced vapors exit the
diirt/!inid interface and are available for mixing with air and for
ignition. Because of proximity to the hot duct, the exit temperature of
these vapors (from the interface) may be larger than the saturation
temperature of the fluid (i.e., the vapor superheats under the liquid).
Various correlations were tried based on this physical picture, but the
results were not successful. Clearly, this subject deserves further study
in the future.

5.3 Discussion of Spray Vs. Stream Results for the Five Fluids
Driving upor the point of view presented in Sections 5.1 and 5.2, the
major mechanrsti.2 differences and similarities between sprays and streams
includ"z
study of the effects of ventilation parameters on the MHSITs for the five
fluids for both 3prays and streams is discussed below. Note that there
are other ýroccsi-s which may come into play that are too numerous to
mention. A1z'-, ,v. three items listed above may take place concurrently
in a givet, test vith reinforcing and/or competing effects. Thus, the
discussion can unly bo 3uggestive and qualitative. More detailed testing
and analysis is reqired to support the discussion on firmer ground.
For the heavier fluids (5606, 83282 and 7808), the effects of Ta on MHSITs
are about the same (within 1000F) whether the fluids are injected as a
stream or a spray (from downstream). Also, MHSIT decreases moderately
with increase in ,. (Fig. 46).
On the ether hand, for the lighter fluids (JP-4 and JP-8) the
corresponding effects differ significantly 0
(up to 450 F) for a spray
versus a stream: MHSIT decreases strongly with increase in Ta for sprays
and moderately to negligibly for streams. (Fig. 47).

and 45 where sprays and streams of 83282 show a much stronger pressure
dependence than the other fluids in either spray or stream.
As shown in Figure 48 for 5606 and 83282, MHSIT increases with increasing
Va for both sprays and streams. This trend is consistent with the
The difference between the results for the spray from upstream and
downstream for 5606 is greater than expected. The spray from upstream
data were acquired with an older nozzle, although of the same type as the
rest of the data. The older nozzle may have been more worn, producing
larger droplets. However, it is unclear whether the differences in these
Data Correlation
The above discussions and the results of Section 5.1.2 suggest that the
chemistry (i.e., same fluid), was used. (Here L denotes a heating length
and was taken to be the duct diameter for the simple duct data and the
projected length of the hot duct along the ventilation air flow direction
for the high realism tests).
The correlation between MHSIT and this parameter was tested and the
results are shown in Figures 54 to 58 for each of the five fluids. Delta
T, on the Y-axis, is the difference between the preheated air temperature
and room temperature, 80 0 F. As noted in Section 5.1.2, the effect of air
preheating can be approximated by increasing the duct temperature

bottom halves of each Figure include the same data shown with the proposed
,:orrelation at the top and MHSIT versus Va at the bottom. This permits
evaluation of the use of this correlation.
Despite the large scatter in all these plots, note that the correlation is
,3ijperior to the use of MISIT. Furthermore, the correlation can be
considered particularly successful for 83282 (except for one data point)
The success of the correlation for 83282 fluid suggests that its ignition
delay is mainly limited by chemical kinetics; while it is not for the
other fluids, where other processes are also important. This finding is
consistent with the low MHSITs found for 83282 and the inference that it
boils in a nucleate iegime. However, more work is required to determine
with certainty the relationships between such findings.

6.0 CONCL.USIONS AND RECOHMENDATIONS
6.1 Conclusions
The results of tiie present study add significantly to the data base-
available on hot surface ignition temperature, particula-ly as it applies
to aircraft engine compartmeut design. The most important features of the
new data are:
The difference in NISIT between sprays and streams is significant for .P-J 1

versus film) for streams. Thus the observed differences and similarities
between the various fluids and between sprays and streams were
interpreted. Also a correlation is presented to describe the effects of
the ventilation air test conditions on the MHSIT ior each fluid.
6.2 Recommendations
1. A test using the stream injection of the test fluids on the air heated
simple duct should be performed. No data on the MHSIT for stream on the
simple duct was taken in this test program. A fluid stream directly onto
a thermocouple tack-welded onto the simple ducý would provide temperature
vs. time response of a wetted suriace on the duct and this data would
piovide insight into the boiling regimes and neat transfer coefficients of
the vatious test fluids. This data is important ti allow correlation of
hot surfac.e ignition variables with MHSIT.
125
4,. Since it was found that the local ventilation velocity was more
itspoctant thnm the average ventilation velocity in the obstruction filli
high, realis•m test article, it is desirable in the future to characteri2,
the ventilation velocities at the stream location sites. Measurement o.
liacal ventilation air temperatures may also prove to be more meaningful
than in upstream ventilation air temperature measuremert.
S.. In thfrs test progLam, nitrogen was used to pressurize the fluid
reservoirs in order to inject the fluid at the proper tlowrate. However,
as the fluid was streamed onto thle duct, the observation waz- often, made
that gas would bubble out of the fluid. Assuming that this gas was
nitrogen, it may have affected the local oxygen concentration, driving the
MUSIT higher. To lessen this effect, and to better simulate the aircraft
engine compartment (where fluids are generally pressurized by pumps) air
would be a more suitable gas with which to pressurize the f luid
reservoirs.

7. Dlata concerning the effect of air pressure on the fluid AIT's was
sought and not found. Additional testing directed at defining this effect
might help to interpret KHSIT phenomenc-a.

results are reported in Appendix A. They should be analyzed in future
work.

SUMMARY
An analysis of an intrinsic thermocouple installation for- the hot
service ignition test was done to determine the error between the
actual surface temperature of the bleed air duct and the
temperature measured by the thermocouple. Results show that for
a wide range of conditions during the test a max'mum error of
approximately -27 F could be expected, for surface temperatures
in the range of 450 to 1350 F. Note that the error produces a
lower thermocouple reading than the actual surface temperature of
the duct, due to the fin effect of the thermocouple leads. The
minimum error for the range of test conditions was -9 F. For the
test conditions where the air temperature within the enclcsure
was greater than the bleed duct temperature the thermocouple
created a positive error in the reading.
INTRODUCTION
A set of tests had been completed in order to determine the
ignition conditions for a variety of fuels and lubricants in a
simulated engine compartment. As part of the post data analysis
for the test, an analysis of the "fin effect" error of the
thermocouple leads has been completed. When a thermocouple is
used to measure the surface temperature of an object, it will
inherently change the surface temperature at the point of
measurement, due to its presence. This error is due to the
convective and radiative heat losses of the thermocouple leads to
the surrounding air flow and walls and hence, its action as a fin
attached to the surface.
A wide range of air temperature and flow velocities were present
during
B-3
IM
the tests and it is required that an error correction be
estimated for the surface temperature measurement due to this fin
effect error. The bleed air duct is made of Inconel 625 and the
thermocouples were a type K (chromel/alumel), 24 AWG and
insulated with a fiberglass braid.
MODEL DESCRIPTION
The thermal mathi model used to determine the thermocouple error
consisted of a steady-state thermal network model of a 12 inch
section of the bleed duct and one of the thermocouples attached
to it. The thermocouple lead length was set at about 6 inches,
which was the length exposed to the air flow in the enclosure.
The solution technique for the thermal network is based on the
presentation in [1]. The thermal math model consisted of 36
nodes for the bleed air duct, 11 nodes for the thermocouple and 3
boundary nodes, see Figure 1. One boundary node represented the
temperature of the air flow through the bleed air duct, while the
other two represented the air flow through the enclosure and the
enclosure surface temperature. These boundary values (see Tables
1 and 2 in results) were taken from the test conditions recorded
during the test.
The correlations used for the forced convection air flow over the
bleed air duct and the air flow inside the bleed air duct can be
found in [2]. For flow over the duct and leads the correlation
used was for cross flow ove a •,• -der

Note that the chromel and alumel are estimated values at this
time. It is expected that the thermal conductivity for these two
materials will be very close to the values used. The air
velocity in the bleed duct was calculated using a mass flow rate
of 1.0 lbm/sec at a pressure of 130 psia and the given
temperature of the test condition.
RESULTS
Results are presented for a total of 3 basic sets of conditions
that were run in the test section. These sets of conditions were
chosen to represent the minimum and maximum errors expected for
the test configurations that -ere r•n. Table 1 shows the results
for the lowest enclosure air temperature, over a range of flow
velocities and bleed air duct temperatures. The maximum error
occurs for the highest difference between bleed duct temperature
and the enclosure air temperature, as would be expected. Vote
that the enclosure wall temperature is expected to be lower than
the air temperature, due to losses to the surrounding
environment.
Table 2 contains the results for the elevated enclosure air
temperature cases. This also resulted in the ernlosure wall
temperatures to be higher. Only the extreme enclosure air
velocities (minimum and maximum) were run for these cases. As
would be expected the errors in the thermocouple readings are
lower
B-5
than the cases for which the temperature difference between the
bleed duct and enclosure are higher. It is interesting to note
that for case 3a, in which the air teaperature in the enclosure
exceeds the bleed duct air temperature, that the effect of the
thermocouple was to locally heat the duct. This condition gave
the lowest predicted error in the thermocouple reading.

APPENDIX C. PERTINENT AIRCRAFT FLUID PROPERTIES
Properties are needed for the five aircraft fluids of interest kJP-4, JP-8,
5606, 83282 and 7808) te carry out calculations on the basis of whica one can
interpret the test results. The properties of interest include:
Most of these properties (except for the heat transfer coefficients) were
readily available for JP-4 and JP-8. However, they were not readily available
for the heavier fluids (5606, 83282 and 7808) because:
- little modeli..g effort has been devoted to these fluids in the past
(unlike the case of the JP fuels)
C-i
To obtain even rough values or estimates for such properties, three approaches
vere followed:
o a manual search of the MIT and the AFWAL library including the MIL
standards
Kinetic data for the ignition reaction were found in the literature for JP-4
and JP-8 (Ref. C-i), but not for the other fluids. They are given in Table C-
1. We recomnend that such basic data be measure in future work.

relationship (Fig. C-1) at various temperatures and averaged the
values (for simplicity). Also, we used reasonable average
molecular weights for these multicomponent fluids as given in
Table C-1. Thus, we calculated an estimate for an average latent

APPENDIX D. SPRAY ANALYSIS
In the spray tests, liquid flows at high velocity from the nozzle- The liquid
breaks up into droplets that decelerate, heat up and evaporate as they
approach the duct. The vapors, mix with air, heat up further and ignition
occurs when the appropriate temperature-composition-time are attained.
We discuss below these key processes along with their governing equations.
The key processes are:
o atomization
o droplet dynamics
o chemical kinetics
o ignition criterion

The transit time near the duct (tt) is obtained by dividing a heating
length by the droplet velocity at the duct leading edge. For the simple
duct experiments, the heating length is assumed to be the duct diameter
(1.5 inches). For the high realism tests, the heating length is taken
to be 22.5 inches (roughly the projected length oe the hot duct along
the spray direction).
The results of the above analysis are used as initial conditions for the
droplet heating/evaporation analysis.

Consider a spherical droplet of fuel at an initial temperature (To), engulfed
in a hot air stream at a higher temperature (Th). The hot air is in the
boundary layer of the duct. The relative velocity between droplet and air is
governed by the droplet initial velocity and by drag from the much slower
ventilation air.
The heat transfer from the air to the droplet Is given by the Nusselt number

Kinetics of Ignition
Following Reference D-3, a one-step overall second order reaction was used to
model the kinetic portion of the ignition delay time:
tc = f - exp (E/RT) / pn
Ignition Criterion
Ignition is assumed to occur when the sum of the evaporation and chemical
times is less than the transit time near the hot duct. The temperature is
increased parametrically until this criteria is satisfied. This was done only
for JP-4 and JP-8 for which we found kinetic data in the literature.

Droplet Impingement Against a Hot Surface
From the droplet dynamic analysis presented above, one predicts that small
droplets decelerate befoie reaching the duct; are entrained by the
ventilation air; and may flow around the duct in its hot boundary layer. On
the other hand, large droplets %ill decelerate more slowly and impinge on the
duct at high velocity and large Weber number. The dynamic of such an
Impingement and its effect on heat transfer from the surface to the droplet is
a complicated process that is not completely understood.

Clearly, the boiling behavior depends on where vapor bubbles are formed and on
whether or not the±y are trapped by the liquid film. We recommend that this
subject be investigated in future work for the conditions of interest to hot
surface ignition.

APPENDIX E. DETERMINATION OF BOILING REGIMES FOR HOT SURFACE IG•!TICN
TESTS
In the stream tests, the fluid is injected by a drip tube onto a horizontal
hot duct. The fluid jet impacts the duct and spreads as a thin film outwardly
from the impact point in all radial directions. This liquid flow produces e
stagnation-like flow field. After a very short distance, the spreading tluid
breaks up into rivulets. This distance depends on a number of variables and
is of the order of 0.3 inch based on photographs obtained in -1 similar
experiment. The rivulets continue to flow ovvr the duct and further break up
into ligaments and droplets (See Plate E-'.)-
A key unknown in this study is whether boiling occurs in the nucleate or film
boiling regime. Depending on the regime, large differences are expected in
the rates of fluid evaporation and the attained temperatures--which in turn
would affect the ignition results in this study. Identification of the
boiling regime was deemed needed to help interpret the results.
In boiling, the driving force for heat transfer is the excess wall temperature
(Tw) cver the saturation temperature (Tsat) of the liquid. Thus. the heat
transfer coefficient (h) in boiling is usually defined as

Correlations for h are given ini the literature (Ref. E-l) for static, pool
boiling of single-component pure substances. For simplicity, we applied these
correlations to our flowing, multi-component fluids using the collected
thermophysical properties and estimated "average" thermodynamic properties
from Appendix C. Also, we simplified these correlations to the case where the
ratio of vapor density (p ) to liquid density (pl) is much less than unity.
Such a case applies to the conditions of this study.
Nucleate boiling
In this regime, bubbles form (nucleation), grow and move away from the
surface. Their motion stirs the liquid near the hot surface and produces very
high heat transfer coefficients (hn). The dependence of hn on the excess
temperature is give by:

The boiling heat traitsfer coefficients and heat fluxes are plotted as a
function of (Tw - Tsat) at ambient pressure (14.4 psia in the nacelle)
according the the above correlation in Figure E-1 and E-2, respectively.
Since the transition between these two regimes is unstable, we simply
illustrate it by connecting (for each fluid) the point of maximum heat flux to
that of minimum heat flux by a dashed straight curve (on the log-log plot).
Note that the transition from nucleate to film regimes occurs at a different
excess temperature for each fluid.

Applicable Boiling Regime for Hot S,,rface Ignition Tests
It should be noted that the excess wall temperatures at which boiling changes
from a nucleate to a film regime are functions of pressure according to the
above equations. This is illustrated in Figs. E-3 to E-7 which show these
excess temperatures as a function of pressure for the five fluids of interest.
These plots delineate (by straight lines) the conditions at which the nucleate
regime ends and the film regime begins.
o all the JP-4 and JP-8 tests fall well into the film boiling regime.
For these fluids, the required ignition temperature is high and the
saturation temperature is low, yielding a large excess temperature.
o the 83282 tests may fall in either regime and are mostly in the
nucleate regime. For this fluid, the required ignition temperature
is low and the saturation temperature is high, yielding a small
excess temperature. (It may even go negative, i.e., for this heavy
fluid, the lighter ends might ignite while the heavier ends,
remaining in the fluid, wet the duct surface.)

o the 5606 and 7808 tests are intermediate between the above two
behaviors, falling mainly in the film regime.
Figure E-1 indicates that the heat transfer coefficients are of the order of:
2
o 100 to 3000 Btu/hr'ft '°F for the nucleate boiling regime
-lo, n.t....at the convective heat transfer coefficient from the hot air
(inside the duct) to the duct wall (at 1 lb/sec) is about 200 Btu/hr'ft 2 "oF.
Since this convective heat transfer step is in series with the boiling step,
the slower of the two will limit the overall heat transfer. In the case at
hand, the overall heat transfer will be limited by the internal resistance on
the air side for the case of nucleate boiling (for 83282); and by the external
resistance on the vapor side for film boiling (for the other fluids).
As described previously, when the fluid stream impacts the duct, it spreads as
a thin film outwardly from the impact point in all radial directions. After a
very short distance, the spreading fluid breaks up into rivulets. This
distance depends on a number of variables and is of the order of 0.3 inch
based on photographs obtained in a similar experiment. It is reasonable to
rssume that most of the direct heat transfer (from duct to film) occurs in
this small area (with a 0.3 inch radius).

From an energy balance en this flowing stream, one predicts that bulk fluid
temperature will not reach saturation near the duct surface. Even with the
maximum possible overall heat transfer coefficient (200 Btu/hr'ft 2 "OF), the
bulk temperature rises only to 160°F due to the high fluid flow rate and the
small contact area between the fluid and duct. In reality, a much lower h and
temperature will be obtained because of the external thermal resistance in the
film regime.
Thus, the bulk liquid temperature is much lower than its saturation
temperature. In other words, boiling occurs in a subcooled regime, i.e.,
vapors are formed near the hot duct surface and rise through a cooler liquid
where they condense releasing their latent heat.
Based on the discussion above, one can develop the following picture for the
case at hand, as ill'istrated in Fig. E-8. As the liquid flows over the hot
plate, its temperature rises but the fluid remains subcooled. Vapors are
formed only very near the surface where a very thin layer of fluid reaches the
saturation temperature. The vapors rise through and condense in the liquid.
The applicable regimes are mainly subcooled film boiling for all the fluids of
interest except for 83202 where subcooled nucleate boiling also occurs.
At the edge of the spreading liquid film, the produced vapors exit the
duct/liquid interface and are available for mixing with air and for ignition.
A key parameter is the exit temperature of these vapors. This exit
temperature can be modeled based on the physical description described above.
Such a model is recommended for future work. As a rough approximation, we
estimate that this exit temperature will be the arithmetic mean value between
the temperature of the hot duct aid the saturation temperature of the fluid.
We suspect that the exit temperature may correlate with the autoignition
temperature (AIT) of the fluids. Since we had no AIT data at various
pressures, we could not test this correlation. Such work is recommended in
the future.

Ybe discussions in Appendices D and E highlight the need for a basic sdvy 1C
elucidate the key processes involved in the ignition of aircraft fluids when
im contact with a hot surface. Such a study may be carried out under the
simplest conditions that are amenable to control and measurements. For
example, experiments may consist of placing small droplets on a hot surface
with a hypodermic needle. A flat surface would be used with a small
depression at its center to stabilize the droplets. The test variables would
include:
"o plate temperature from 100 0 C to 400 0 C over fluid boiling points
regime under the range of conditions of interest. One can then use these
results to interpret test data under more practicality conditions.
