Standard Test Method for Freezing Point of Aviation Fuels

Importancia y uso:

4.1 The freezing point of an aviation fuel is the lowest temperature at which the fuel remains free of solid hydrocarbon crystals that can restrict the flow of fuel through filters if present in the fuel system of the aircraft. The temperature of the fuel in the aircraft tank normally falls during flight depending on aircraft speed, altitude, and flight duration. The freezing point of the fuel must always be lower than the minimum operational tank temperature.

4.2 Freezing point is a requirement in Specifications D910, D1655, and D7566.
