  • Performance and Emission Characteristics of an Aircraft Turbo Diesel Engine Using JET-A Fuel
    Performance and Emission Characteristics of an Aircraft Turbo Diesel Engine using JET-A Fuel by Sean Christopher Underwood B.S. Aerospace Engineering, Georgia Institute of Technology, 2005 B.S. Mathematics, Georgia Southwestern State University, 2005 Submitted to the Department of Aerospace Engineering and the Faculty of the Graduate School of Engineering at the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science. Committee: ________________________________ Dr. Ray Taghavi, Committee Chairman ________________________________ Dr. Saeed Farokhi, Committee Member ________________________________ Dr. Mark Ewing, Committee Member ___________________ Date Thesis Defended The Thesis Committee for Sean Christopher Underwood certifies that this is the approved Version of the following thesis: Performance and Emission Characteristics of an Aircraft Turbo Diesel Engine using JET-A Fuel Committee: ________________________________ Dr. Ray Taghavi, Committee Chairman ________________________________ Dr. Saeed Farokhi, Committee Member ________________________________ Dr. Mark Ewing, Committee Member ___________________ Date Approved i Abstract Performance and emission data was acquired by testing an aircraft turbo diesel engine with JET-A at the Mal Harned Propulsion Laboratory of the University of Kansas. The performance data was analyzed and compared to the presented data of the manufacturer. The performance test data of the engine was similar to those reported in the handbook of the engine. The emission data was collected in percent of volume, mass, and part per million units. The different types of pollutants that were evaluated were NOx, CO, CO2, and HC. The emission investigation demonstrates that the aircraft turbo diesel emission data (g/kg fuel) was close to other turbine engines reported in the literature.
