Complexities of fuel vapor conditions that exist in aircraft fuel tanks result from infinite conditions that may be produced by aircraft motion, atmospheric changes, and multicomponent nature of turbine fuels; objective of investigation, sponsored by FAA, was to define effects that these many variables might have on fuel tank flammability, especially when considering turbulent flight conditions; by means of instrumental techniques which were developed, equilibrium flammability characteristics were compared to those which were conducted under simulated aircraft dynamics.
