Test stand for fuel components using low viscosity/high flashpoint fuel look-alike

摘要

A test stand and method for calibrating aircraft fuel components which utilizes a fuel look-alike with a flash point above 180° F. and a viscosity below 2.8. Furthermore, the look-alike has the specific gravity and dielectric constant similar to that of aircraft fuel. An operator sets input parameters and adjusts the components until the desired output parameters are attained.
