This study compares liquid fuel combustion characteristics of biofuels derived from camelina (POSF6152) and tallow (POSF6308) with a US domestic aviation fuel (Jet-A, POSF4658) using the spherically symmetric (one-dimensional) droplet flame configuration as the basis of comparison. A blend of camelina biofuel and Jet-A is also examined. The initial droplet diameters were fixed at 0.57 ± 0.03 mm...

Even though the contribution of aviation sector to global economy is very notable, it also has an adverse impact on climate change. Improvements have been made in different areas (i.e., technology, sustainable fuel, and design) mitigate these effects. However, rate improvement small compared increase demand for air transportation. Hence, greenhouse gas emissions are steadily increasing this tre...

Recent concerns of the growing impact of aviation on climate change has prompted the emergence of a field referred to as Sustainable or “Green” Aviation dedicated to mitigating the harmful impact of aviation related CO2 emissions and noise pollution on the environment. In the current paper, a unique “green” business jet aircraft called the TransAtlantic was designed (using analytical formulatio...

ensuring the security in civil aviation - as a primary factor in economical and industrial development - is the major concern of international community. pursuant to the serious challenges in this sector after terrorist events of 11 september 2001 in the united states, international civil aviation organization (icao) as the most important organization relating to the international civil aviatio...

Keywords: Jet aircraft Fuel price Operating cost Leontief technology Translog a b s t r a c t Investigation of the airline response to a fuel price increase is in effect an investigation of the role of variable interactions in aircraft cost models. We examine the impact of fuel price on aircraft costs and airline operational strategies by developing two classes of operating cost models for jet ...
