“…The JP-7 compositional data is notably scattered, with three analyses giving: 32% naphthenes/65% paraffins [Sobel and Spadaccini, 1997], 56.2% paraffins/41.9 % naphthenes [unpublished 1991 AFRL analysis of a 1984 JP-7], and 37.9% paraffins/59.8% naphthenes [GC-FIMS in Table 2 above]. The RP-1 and RG-1 GC-FIMS composition in Table 2 is closer to published results: RP-1=39% paraffins/58% naphthenes and RG-1=24% paraffins/75% naphthenes [Mehta et al, 1995]. Figure 3.…”

“…The amount of coking is very dependent upon the fuel-wetted surface, with copper causing more deposition than steel. Russian kerosene ("RG-1", 2 American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics "naphthyl") is somewhat different from RP-1, notably with a higher density (0.832 vs 0.806 at 22 C) [Mehta et al, 1995]. RG-1 has been chilled before use to increase its density (and thus the mass of propellant that can be loaded onto the rocket).…”

This paper describes the composition and selected properties of kerosene fuels for aerospace propulsion. These petroleum distillate fuels are composed of hundreds-to-thousands of hydrocarbons, with the variations in composition controlled by specifications on boiling range, vapor pressure, contaminants, freeze point, etc. The specific fuels to be discussed include military jet fuels JP-5,7,8 and T-6, commercial jet fuels Jet A, Jet A-1 and TS-1, and kerosene rocket propellants RP-1 and RG-1. Chemical class composition will be discussed, as well as pertinent physical properties. Sources of physical property data and modeling approaches will also be discussed.

Fodder harvesting is one of the enumerative as well as job creative farming. Lucerne is one of the oldest cultivated fodder crops in the world. In a present day, mostly harvesting of fodder in India and Gujarat done by manually. The well matured lucerne are harvested manually by sickle which is time consuming and inefficient. More over manual harvesting is done in a Squatting position which is arduous to the farmer and causes backache. Therefore, a project on development and performance evaluation of lucerne harvesting machine was undertaken. A lucerne harvesting machine was developed which consisted of main frame, diesel engine, conveyor unit, reel unit, cutting unit, handle, cutting height wheel and transporting wheel. The developed lucerne harvester were divided in two part (1) cutting unit having knives of 30 mm width and 2 mm thickness and (2) conveying unit which convey the harvest crop. A power transmit from engine to the cutting unit and conveying unit done by the help of belts and pulleys. The power required for cutting and conveying were 97 W and 215 W, respectively.
