Investigation of possibility of using less volatile fuel in aviation engines; fuels with lower vapor tension would give poorer results on ground and would be liable to produce incrustations or fouling; ground and flight tests; experiments with white spirit seem to indicate that, due to its viscosity being greater than that of gasoline, it will be necessary to improve atomization. From Technique Aeronautique Apr. 15, 1927.
