EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

This report "Engine Performance Comparison Associated with Carburetor Icing DuringAviation Grade Fuel and Automotive Grade Fuel Operation" represents observations.test data and conclusions obtained during sea-Ievel-static test cell engine opera­tion at the Federal Aviation Administration Technical Center. During the accom­plishment of this test effort, a comprehensive data collection and evaluationreview was made associated with operational characteristics of "off-the-shelf"carburetor ice detection/warning devices for general aviation piston engine air­craft during operation on aviation grade fuel and automotive grade fuel. Variousblends of unleaded premium and regular automotive grade fuel obtained from localautomotive service stations were utilized for engine performance data collectionas compared to lOOLL aviation grade fueL Unleaded automotive fuel rather thanstandard leaded automotive fuel was selected due to its low lead content anddecreasing supply of leaded fuels over the years.

As a result of several hours of Continental 0-200A aircraft engine operation. itwas noted that a minor performance change could be seen between aviation andautomotive fuels. This change related to horsepower/torque while engine andexhaust temperatures remained the same. Off-the-shelf carburetor ice detection/warning devices operated the same on all fuels tested as did carburetor icingcharacteristics. It was noted however. that the carburetor had a tendency tocommence icing twice as soon with automotive grade fuel as compared to lOOLLaviation grade fuel.

INTRODUCTION

PURPOSE.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Technical Center's propulsion effort iscentered on the safety and reliability aspects of propulsion systems for bothturbine and piston engines. The detailed planning and objectives of the FAATechnical Center's propulsion program are documented in FAA report (reference 1).Aircraft piston engine safety and reliability is highlighted as an area of concern,particularly induction system problems associated with carburetor icing, inductionsystem moisture ingestion, and carburetor anti-deicing.

The detailed objectives of this specific effort were to: (1) establish test cellengine operation during carburetor ice producing conditions, (2) optically observereal-time carburetor icing operating conditions, and (3) observe/review operationalcharacteristics of "off-the-shelf" carburetor ice detection equipment and engineperformance degradation as related to 100LL aviation grade fuel/unleaded automotivegrade fueL

These investigations were completed and reported in another report (reference 2).

In considering the use of automotive gasoline (autogas) in general aviation pistonengines, it has long been suspected that the high reid vapor pressure of autogasmay increase the tendency of carburetor ice formation. The FAA Office of Air­worthiness requested that the investigations noted in reference 2 be expandeed toinclude an evaluation of the use of autogas relative to its effect on carburetorice formation. This report documents this expanded effort.

BACKGROUND.

Accident/incident data involving conditions conducive to carburetor/induction sys­tem icing as a cause/factor are available from the FAA computer system located inKansas City, Missouri, which contains both FAA and National Transportation SafetyBoard (NTSB) data. A review of this data reveals a substantial number of occur­rences where carburetor icing was the "most probable cause" of general aviationengine failure while in flight. The term "most probable cause" is used due todifficulty in substantiating the insidious culprit which generally dissipates priorto examination of engine conditions.

The NTSB continues to indicate a number of accidents each year in which carburetoricing was reported or suspected. The NTSB accident/incident data, together withthe Technical Center's independent search of FAA's national computer data base,(i.e., Accident/Incidents Data System (AIDS», were the basis for determining over­all scope of the carburetor icing problem. For the purpose of this report, theAIDS was used since it contained NTSB and FAA data and was readily accessible. TheAIDS data are compiled from aircraft registry, NTSB records, National Flight DataCenter, Flight Standards National Field Office Safety Information tables, andreports submitted by field inspectors. Examples of information that may beobtained are: location, date, aircraft ratings, cause factors, contributing fac­tors, number of fatalities, flying condition, etc. This data bank is accessiblethrough United Computer Systems in Kansas City, Missouri, with current data avail­able from 1976 to present. A more detailed AIDS data breakdown is presented inreference 2, while additional historical data is available from items listed inappendix A bibliography.

The NTSB, FAA, military, Foreign Aviation Agencies, and various pilot organizationshave files full of technical reports and published articles dealing with carburetoricing accidents/incidents. The topic has been well researched and published, pro­viding icing probability curves (figure 1) developed by the Canadian Ministry ofTransport for pilot education to preclude a dangerous situation. Various individ­uals have directed their efforts toward developing cockpit instrumentation capableof warning the pilot of actual ice formation, or at least alerting them to the factthat carburetor conditions are conducive to ice formation (depending on atmosphericproperties). Other individuals have pursued carburetor modification which wouldlimit engine power loss during carburetor icing and prevent engine stoppage.

With the advent of aviation grade fuel shortages (both regional and spot shortages)plus continued price escalation, numerous individual/aviation organizations haveconsidered aircraft flight operations on fuels other than that originally utilizedfor aircraft type certification approval. Most requests received by FAA fieldoffices around the country address automotive grade fuel (autogas) usage as areplacement for the aviation grade fuel (avgas) which was originally specified inthe aircraft type certificate and flight manual.

An additional review of NTSB accident/incident data also indicated that nu~erous

aircraft operations are taking place with unauthorized autogas. As a result, theFAA Technical Center was requested to initiate an avgas versus autogas program toreview work previously accomplished, fuel specification differences, aircraft

operational problems/fuel system failure modes, and possible solutions/protectionprocedures. As part of this program, an analysis of carburetor icing characteris­tics, engine operational performance degradation, and "off-the-shelf" carburetorice detection equipment operation were undertaken to ascertain effects associatedwith autogas usage.

As pointed out in reference 2, engine manufacturers are required to design andconstruct intake passages to minimize the danger of ice accretion, according toFederal Aviation Regulations (FAR) 33.35(b). Actual engine operation under carbu­retor icing conditions is not a requirement imposed on the engine manufacturer bythe FAR's. In addition, the engine manufacturers point out that carburetor icingis a problem which must be scrutinized on an individual aircraft model installationbasis. Therefore, engine manufacturers do little, if any, engine test cell workrelative to carburetor icing problems. The final link in the carburetor icingchain is the aircraft manufacturer. As per FAR 23.929 and 23.1093, aircraft man­ufacturers are required to provide a means of increasing carburetor air temperatureby 90° F. Actual aircraft/engine operation in carburetor icing conditions is notimposed by the FAR's and the FAR's remain mute on the topic of ice detectionequipment requirements as related to satisfactory engine operation. Some aircraft/engine manufacturers do offer Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) approved carbu­retor ice detection/warning equipment as optional instrumentation. However, aquestion arises as to what effect, if any, will be imposed on equipment and carbu­retor icing tendency during operation on autogas rather than avgas. Of particularinterest is the question relative to what would happen to the Canadian Ministry ofTransportation carburetor icing probability chart, figure 1, which was originallydeveloped with avgas, if operational performance data were obtained with variousblends of autogas. It should be noted, however, that such an effort was beyond thescope of this program.

OBJECTIVE.

Based on the information obtained during the overall background review of carbu­retor icing problems, a program test plan was developed. Following are theobjectives of the plan:

1. Instrument a test engine to obtain necessary performance data indicatingperformance changes, if any, due to fuel changes/carburetor icing.

2. Review commercial market and attempt to obtain a copy of each carburetorice detector/warning device utilized on general aviation piston engine aircraft.

3. Establish a standard engine test cycle.

4. Perform a baseline engine performance test run on 100LL avgas.

5. Perform a baseline engine performance test run on unleaded premium autogas.

6. Perform a baseline engine performance test run on unleaded regular autogas.

7. Establish test cell engine operation under known icing conditions andobserve operational characteristics of commercial off-the-shelf devices.

8. Determine internal carburetor locations where ice accumulation takes placeas a result of avgas versus autogas.

9. Ascertain how ice formation propagates through th~ carburetor as related toavgas versus autogas.

10. Determine carburetor operation during ice manifestation and note what mayresult from changing fuel, avgas versus autogas.

11. Determine best location of the carburetor ice detection device to givedesired information and note any location changes that may be necessary to accom­modate avgas versus autogas.

APPROACH.

Through in-house FAA Technical Center test cell investigations, repeatable carbure­tor ice producing conditions were established during engine operation on 100LLavgas, unleaded premium autogas and unleaded regular autogas. With strategicallypositioned borescopes, actual internal carburetor ice formation/propagation wasmonitored/video recorded while engine performance parameters were recorded duringactual engine operation. Figure 2 depicts carburetor instrumentation utilized fortesting while table 1 contains a listing of all test parameters measured andrecorded during test cell engine operation.

BASIC CONSIDERATION

TYPES OF ICE.

Ice may form in the induction system and carburetor of reciprocating engines in thefollowing ways:

1. Impact of water droplets in the induction air on surface whose temperature isbelow 32° F (0° C).

2. Cooling to below 32°throttle plate venturi.may approach 30° F.

F of the water vapor in induction air by expansion acrossThis expansion process produces a temperature drop which

3. As fuel is introduced into the carburetor airstream, water entrained or dis­solved in the fuel is cooled to below 32° F.

4. Cooling of moisture-laden induction air to below 32° F, due to fuel evaporationas fuel is introduced into the carburetor airstream.

When a liquid evaporates, a certain amount of heat transfer takes place which coolsthe surrounding environment. The maximum temperature drop with a stoichiometricmixture in piston engine aircraft carburetors will be approximately 3]0 F. Assuch, the total temperature drop through a carburetor may approach 70 F.

FORMATION CHARACTERISTICS.

Based on data obtained during reference 2 testing, it was known that the major iceformation location was the front and back side of the throttle plate. As addressedin the DISCUSSION portion of this report, the throttle plate was the coldest por­tion of the carburetor and, therefore, most susceptible to ice accumulation. Asexpected, ice formation locations and patterns around the throttle plate changedwith engine speed.

ICING PARAMETERS.

Factors/parameters which are critical for ice formation are carburetor airtemperature/ambient air temperature, humidity, and throttle plate angle. Throttleplate angle which relates to engine (rpm) also relates to the amount of ambient airflowing through the engine. This interrelationship has the largest impact oncarburetor metal temperature and as such, ice accumulation rate. Fuel temperatureand mixture setting (rich/lean) were found to have an insignificant impact on iceformation, location, or rate, as related to the test cell engine installationutilized during testing. Actual flight testing by Newman (reference 3) indicates adetectable tendency for mixture setting to affect icing rate based on five carbure­tor icing encounters.

OPERATIONAL CHARACTERISTICS.

Most carburetor icing accident reports place final blame as pilot error, due topilot in command of the aircraft having final authority and responsibility forthe safe conduct of flight operations. While this is a true statement from the FAR

6

Page 17: I .., ,; ,{ Ioi Comparison Associated with Carburetor ...system moisture ingestion, and carburetor anti-deicing. The detailed objectives of this specific effort were to: (1) establish

standpoint, the question remains as to why the pilot allowed conditions to deter­iorate to a point of no recovery.

Cockpit instrumentation, depending on aircraft configuration, which provide indi­cations of aircraft/engine performance deterioration are rpm, airspeed/altimeter,exhaust gas temperature (egt), and manifold pressure. As carburetor ice accumula­tion commences, engine rpm will gradually decay with a fixed pitch propeller andmanifold pressure will decay with a constant speed propeller. This decay will befollowed by a loss of airspeed if constant altitude is maintained, or a loss ofaltitude if aircraft trim is allowed to maintain constant airspeed. As noted underthe GENERAL OBSERVATIONS portion of this report, ice accumulation generally pro­duces mixture enrichment which leads to a reduction in egt and is accompanied witha rough running engine.

Ice accumulation rate depends on atmospheric conditions, but generally is verysteady and persistent. This brings about a steady change to aircraft/engineperformance and as such, lends itself to catching the pilot unaware. Due to thissteady change, some indications such as egt change are difficult to detect,although not impossible.

In addition to the standard cockput instrumentation required by FAR's, thereare optional instruments available on the market shelf which have been approved bythe FAA on a no-hazard basis with the issuance of STC's for installation in typecertificated aircraft. Such instruments are approved as optional equipment onlyand flight operations should not be predicated on their use. Appendix B contains alisting of all known devices which are presently available or which will shortly beavailable as "off-the-shelf" equipment.

TEST CELL EQUIPMENT

ENGINE.

The test engine was a Teledyne Continental Motors zero time factory overhauled0-200A, serial number 231139-R, naturally aspirated, overhead valved, air cooled,horizontally opposed, direct drive, wet sump aircraft engine, with a bore andstroke of 4.06 inch x 3.88 inch for a total displacement of 201 cubic inches. Thecompression ratio was 7.0;1 with a firing order of 1-3-2-4.

The wet sump oil system has a 6-quart capacity with a standard gear type pump andno oil cooler. The engine contains hydraulic tappets while the cylinder walls/pistons are spray lubricated. Normal operational oil pressure was 30 to 60 poundsper square inch gage (psig).

The Cessna 150 gravity feed fuel system produced 0.9 pounds per square inch (psi)pressure at the carburetor inlet with a full tank of 13 gallons, 100 low-lead avgasor autogas. Test installation carburetor system was a standard Marvel-ScheblerModel MA-35PA, part number 10-5128 which had been especially instrumented toprovide desired data parameters for test.

The test installation engine had a dual magneto, radio shielded ignition systemwhere the right magneto fired the upper spark plugs and the left magneto fired thelower plugs. The magnetos were Slick Model 4201 with impulse couplings. Bothmagnetos drove clockwise, with a one-to-one drive ratio to the crankshaft andtimed to 24° before top dead center (BTDC).

COOLING SYSTEH.

The cooling system consisted of an air moving and heat unit, a pressure regulatingand shutoff valve, an engine cooling hood, ducting and various pressure, andtemperature probes. The air moving and heating unit was self-contained with a6,000 ft 3/min (CFM) centrifugal blower, 20 Horsepower (HP), 3,600 rpm, 240 volt3-phase, 60 hertz (Hz) motor. A one million British Thermal Unit (Btu) per hourburner using JP4 fuel with boiler, expansion tank and heat exchanger was alsoincluded.

A 24-inch diameter sheet metal duct with temperature and pressure probes wasutilized to connect the air moving unit, pressure regulating and shutoff valve, and18-inch diameter flex duct which attached to the top of engine cooling hood. Thepressure regulating and shutoff valve was a sheet metal tee with a set of louversand regulating slide on the top to allow excess pressure/airflow to escape. Theregulating portion had coarse and fine adjustment to allow for easy major settingsand daily ambient changes, while the branch portion had shutoff louvers prior tothe 18-inch engine ducting.

The engine cooling hood was a sheet metal box on top of the cylinders which conver­ted the velocity of the cooling air into a pressure differential to move air acrossthe cooling fins carrying away engine heat. The box had a total temperature probeand static ports to read cooling air pressure and temperature inside the hoodassembly. There were high temperature rubber seals next to each cylinder to forceair across the fins, rather than around them. The top of the hood was basically atransition section changing the 18-inch round flex duct to the shape of thecylinder box.

FUEL SYSTEM..

The test installation fuel system utilized a standard factory manufactured Cessna150 aircraft fuel system from fuel tanks to carburetor inlet with the exception oftwo slight modifications. The first modification was an installation of twonormally closed llS-volt alternating current (a.c.) 9/32-inch orifice solenoidshutoff valves. One each of these valves was placed in the left and right fueltank supply line just prior to "T" connection in front of standard aircraft fuelline shutoff valve. This modification was implemented to facilitate instantaneousselection of either left or right fuel tank which contained different fuel. Duringinstallation of solenoid shutoff valves, an equal length of fuel line was removedso as to maintain as accurate as possible overall system design. For the durationof this test effort, 100LL avgas was always placed in the right fuel tank (whenviewed from behind the engine) and test autogas fuel was placed in the left fueltank.

The second modification encompassed a turbine fuel flow meter installation downstream of the standard aircraft fuel system shutoff valve. This installationlocation was selected since it would allow continuous fuel flow measurement fromeither fuel tank. During flowmeter installation, an equal length of fuel line wasalso removed so as to maintain as accurate as possible overall system design.

Individual left and right fuel tank quick drain valves were removed to facilitatethermocouple installation with Swagelokm fittings. This installation allowed in­tank fuel temperature data recording from a position I-inch above fuel tank bottom.In addition, one thermocouple was placed inside the standard aircraft fuel strainer

assembly by utilizing cylinder primer line access port. This position provided anactual fuel temperature data point without disrupting fuel line flow. All fuellines were covered with insulation to reduce ambient temperature impact on fuel.The carburetor instrumentation included two throttle plate temperatures. threemetal temperatures. a float bowl fuel temperature. carburetor air inlet temperature(lower borescope adapter. figure 3). and a carburator fuel-air exit temperature(upper borescope adapter. figure 3). Idle jet pressure and inlet fuel pressurewere also instrumented. The carburetor was enclosed in a metal box to pssist incontrolling ambient temperature and simulate engine cowling conditions. There wereopenings in the box for throttle. mixture control. fuel line. instrumentationwires. tubes and to allow air to exhaust. Two thermocouple probes were alsoinstalled in cylinder number 3 induction tube. one each in lower and upper end.Two thermocouples were also installed. one each in cylinder number 3 and cylindernumber 4 intake valve port area. After carburetor and engine instrumentation1nstallation was completed. operational testing was accomplished to obtain data forengine performance correlation with performance data obtained during initial engineinstallation test run checks. No performance change was noted as a result ofextensive instrumentation.

INDUCTION AIR SYSTEM.

The inductuon air systemdevice, plenum chamber,ducting.

consisted of two air sources and conditioners, a humiditycarburetor heat valve, heat exchanger, and associated

The air sources were two 18,000 Btu per hour, 220 volt a.c. air-conditionersducted together with a 6-inch flex line and a sheet metal tee. There were smallsheet metal boxes with thermocouple instrumentation on the air-conditioner outletsthat transition to the 6-inch duct. When the engine was not running, the "high­fan" position on air conditioners pressurized the main plenum chamber to about 0.90inches of water.

A specially designed humidity device which took a stream of water and broke it upwith jets of air was used to supply moisture needed to make ice in the carburetor.The device included an air pressure gage and shutoff/regulating valve whichcontrolled the shop air utilized to breakup the water stream, a rotometer andshutoff valve to measure and regulate water flow, and a water discharge tubelocated in the high pressure air-jet path. This device could easily take ambientair or air-conditioned air to the saturation point by adjusting water flow rate.

The plenum chamber was a 2-foot sheet metal cube with legs, a 6-inch diameter inletconnection from the humidity device and two 3-inch outlets. There was a deflectorplate at the 6-inch inlet to arrest any liquid water droplets and deflect them intothe sump area. Also included were the temperature probe, pressure tap, dewpointmeasuring ports, and sump area drain. The entire plenum was insulated to reduceambient temperature effects on the conditioned air.

The carburetor heat valve was tee-shaped with a remotely operated hydraulic slavesystem flapper valve and lever mechanism to allow either normal conditioned air orheated air to enter carburetor inlet. Carburetor heat was used between test pointsto heat and dry the engine induction system.

The heat exchanger, sometimes called a heater muff, was bolted to the exhaust pipeson the right side of the engine. When heat was selected, induction air would bedrawn from the plenum chamber, around the exhaust pipes and into the carburetorinlet. The heater muff inlet and outlet had 3-inch flexible tubing connecting theentire system from plenum to carburetor inlet.

ICE MONITORING SYSTEM.

The ice monitoring system consisted of two fiber optic borescopes, two cold lightsources, two television (TV) cameras, one video cassette recorder, two TV monitors,cabling, and various adapters.

There were two 0.340-inch diameter fiber optic borescopes which had a 50-inchworking length. One borescope had a forward viewing distal end while the other wasside-viewing. Both were capable of 120° articulation in either direction fromstraight. A cold light source with two easily changed internal lamps, a brightnesscontrol knob operating on US-volt a.c., 2.5 amps, accompained each bore~cope.

Both light sources were attached to a shock-mounted plate to dampen engine vibra­tion and, in addition, the carburetor bottom borescope light source was wired witha remote power switch for control room use while testing optical ice detectors.

10

Page 21: I .., ,; ,{ Ioi Comparison Associated with Carburetor ...system moisture ingestion, and carburetor anti-deicing. The detailed objectives of this specific effort were to: (1) establish

Each borescope optical end had a special adapter which allowed attachment toindividual standard black and white TV cameras. This assembly was then anchored tothe same shock mounted plate utilized for borescope light sources. Each cameraalso required a separate remote power supply which was located in the control room.The distal end of each borescope was mounted in separate adapters specificallydesigned to fit below and above carburetor mounting flange and provide physicalmounting of borescope probes while the bottom adapter also allowed flexing of thedistal end.

A video cassette recorder was used to obtain a pictorial record of pertinent testsor conditions of a test. The video cassette recorder was normally attached to thebottom borescope to record bottom throttle plate view. The recorder could easilyand quickly be shifted to the top borescope which provided viewing of either thetop throttle plate area or the intake manifold.

Two TV monitors were used to view the test continually and check for ice buildup.The monitors allowed for varying the test conditions and obtaining immediate feed­back, relative to which data should be recorded. Figure 3 depicts the overallinstrumentation/installation equipment.

DATA ACQUISTION SYSTEM.

The data acquistion system used to collect the data was a NEFF Instrument Corpora­tion Series 620L analog data acquisition and control system. This system consistsof a NEFF Series 400 differential multiplexer, a Digital Equipment CorporationPDP 11-04 computer, and a Kennedy Corporation Model 9000 tape transport.

The differential multiplexer was a complete high-speed data acquisition subsystem.It contained a high-speed solid-state analog signal multiplexer that was capableof accepting 256 input channels, a programmable gain differential amplifier, andan analog-to-digi tal converter. Signals acceptable to the differential mul ti­plexer were thermocouple and analog voltages with full-sacle reading ranging from5 millivolts to 10.24 volts. Each channel had a 10-Hz filter to reject super­imposed and unwanted signal frequencies.

Control of the data acquisition was performed by the PDPII-04 computer which en­compassed setting sampling rate (10 kHz max), converting raw data into engineeringunits as established by operator, displaying eight different parameters oncathode ray tube (CRT) and writing data on Kennedy tape drive at a rate of 1600bits per second. An alarm capability was installed to warn the engine operatorwhen any parameter reached a critical value.

Thermocouple instrumentation utilized during test operations were calibrated to+0.5 0 F, while data acquisi tion/ computer sys tem carried data readings to+0.0001 0 F. This can be observed in the rapid sharp changes depicted in dataplots.

ENGINE TEST SEQUENCE

BREAK-IN RUN.

The engine was purchased as a Teledyne Continental Motors factory rebuilt, zerotime engine. A 50-hour break-in run was completed prior to the 150 hours of test­cell operation required during reference 2 work effort.

The first 25 hours of operation was conducted with a non-detergent oil type Mil-C­6529 Type II, while the remainder of the testing was conducted with an AshlessDispersent Aviation oil EE-80. Initially, oil was changed at 25 hours, again atthe first 50-hour inspection and every 50 hours of subsequent operation.

Break-in testing started with an 800 to 1000 rpm setting. When oil temperature andcylinder-head temperature (CHT) showed a definite increase, rpm was set to 1200 anda manual data point taken. When oil temperature reached 70° F or greater, rpm wasincreased to 1800, and after a stabilization time a magneto test was performed.The next series of steps paralleled a normal light plane operation. A full throt­tle takeoff run ofl about 5 minutes was accomplished followed by a power reductionto 2050 rpm with a manual data reading taken at each point. Finally, rpm was setat 1950 for a 20- to 30-minute steady-state condition, with data taken every 10minutes, and then a 1200 rpm cooling condition was set, followed by a decision toeither enter a shutdown sequence or initiate another cycle.

The engine start, magneto check and a full power run was labeled Normal Start-UpTest (SUT).

BASELINE TEST 1.

This test was initiated with a SUT. After the full power condition data weretaken, rpm was retarded to 1000 and engine allowed to stabilize. Computer data fortest parameters listed in table 1 were taken continuously prior to engine startthrough to engine secure at 1 scan per 15 seconds. Manual data were taken at eachtest point after engine readings stabilized. Test sequence utilized is tabulatedin table 2, but basically consisted of the items previously mentioned above,followed by stabilized test points at each 100 rpm from 1000 to 2800. Manual datarecorded during this baseline test sequence for 100LL avgas, unleaded premiumautogas, and unleaded regular autogas is presented in appendix C. When a full testwas completed, 1200 rpm was selected and cooling air modulated to allow the engineto cool slowly. A 1000 rpm condition was selected, a magneto safety check accom­plished, and then mixture control pulled to the OFF-position to stop engine. Thislatter sequence was labeled Normal Shut-Down Test (SDT).

BASELINE TEST 2.

This test sequence was initiated with engine start and warm-up at 1000 to 1200 rpmuntil oil temperature reached 75° F. Next came a magneto test at 1800 rpm followedby a power reduction to 1000 rpm for 2 minutes and then proceeded as listed intable 2. The test sequence listed in table 2 was developed which simulated a typ­ical flight profile from takeoff/climb, cruise, en route climb to a higher alti­tude, cruise, descent for airport, enter traffic pattern, approach, landing, taxiand engine secure. Computer data for test parameters listed in table 1 was takencontinuously from engine start through to engine secure at 1 scan per 15 seconds.

CARBURETOR ICE WARNING DEVICES.

All carburetor ice warning devices listed in appendix B, with the exception of itemb., were tested during carburetor icing conditions with 100LL avgas, unleadedpremium autogas and unleaded regular autogas. Tests were conducted with three mainparameters in mind. First, it is very difficult to build ice at high rpm (above2400) in a short period of time. Next, experience had previously shown (reference2) that throttle angle affects temperature readings in the location of ice detec­tors mounted in the wall of the carburetor. This means that rpm/throttle anglecould affect the ice detection characteristics. Third, ice accumulation willcommence at various times and locations with no apparent change or degradation toengine performance. Due to the insidious nature of carburetor icing, data resultswould best be derived by optical (video) observation.

The optical ice monitoring system gave a very good picture below the throttle plateat all times, while the picture above the throttle plate (which was taken through a0.5 inch plexiglas plate) provided marginal observation during actual ice accumula­tion. It was observed that high rpm ice tended to build around the upper throttleplate edge next to carburetor wall which at times was slightly out of the immediateview of the bottom borescope. Relocation of either borescope would not solve thisproblem. It was also noted that very little; if any, ice formed in the inductionmanifold at a given test rpm as will be covered in the DISCUSSION portion of thisreport.

13

Page 24: I .., ,; ,{ Ioi Comparison Associated with Carburetor ...system moisture ingestion, and carburetor anti-deicing. The detailed objectives of this specific effort were to: (1) establish

A series of ice detecting tests was performed with each ice warning deviceutilizing steady state rpm conditions listeJ in table 2, BASELINE TEST 1, whichproduced several repeatable ice propagation patterns and rates-while operating onvarious fuel grades. Once a steady-state test point rpm was selected, carburetorheat was applied to remove any existing ice. Once visual ice was gone and throttleplate temperature was above 34° F, heat was turned off. Time was then taken untilinitiation of ice accumulation and operational characteristics of each warningdevice observed. Reference 2 should also be reviewed to note detailed operationalcharacteristics of appendix B devices, d and e.

DISCUSSION

ENGINE PERFORMANCE CHANGES DUE TO FUEL TYPE.

This test effort was initiated to review carburetor ice and carburetor ice warningdevices operational characteristics change associated with avgas and autogas. Asaddressed under the TEST CELL EQUIPMENT portion of this report, the test engine wasa factory rebuilt zero time 0-200A with approximately 150 hours of test celloperation accumulated by the FAA Technical Center under a separate program. It wasconcluded at the initiation of this effort that, in order to point out performancechanges due to carburetor ice or to evaluate carburetor ice detection/warningdevices operation on avgas and autogas, an engine performance comparison due tofuel utilized for testing was a first requirement. As such, instrumentation listedin table 1 was installed so that adequate test parameter data would be obtained.All parameters listed in table 1 were scanned and recorded by computer at 15 secondintervals during engine operation. In addition, specific test parameters were handrecorded during some test sequence operation when a special data graph was desired.

Based on previous experience, two baseline test sequences were undertaken asoutlined in table 2. Uncorrected test cell performance data taken during baselinetest 1 are presented in appendix C. This manually recorded baseline data was takenwith rich and lean mixture settings for 100LL avgas, unleaded premium autogas andunleaded regular autogas. Uncorrected test cell performance data taken duringbaseline test 2 is presented in appendix D. Baseline test 2 simulated a short one­hour flight profile and was only performed with a full rich mixture for totalduration. This test sequence was also run with all three grades of fuel.

It shou~d be pointed out at this time that all test cell engine operation wasconducted with three grades of fuel: 100LL avgas, unleaded premium autogas, andunleaded regular autogas. Engine performance and carburetor ice detection/warningdevice testing were all performed on these three grades of fuel. The autogas fuelwas obtained from several roadside gasoline stations in four five-gallon con­tainers. No special test fuels were obtained and no special fuel handling proce­dures instituted. It was desired to obtain performance data on autogas transportedto aircraft fuel tanks much in the same way the average pilot would do if utilizingautogas prior to a wide-spread airport delivery network.

After test cell fuel system installation was completed as addressed in the TESTCELL EQUIPMENT portion of this report and pictured in appendix E, a functional testwas performed to insure proper operation of all hardware and to measure unusablefuel remaining in left fuel system (autogas fuel tank). It was noted that when theengine ran out of fuel on the left fuel tank, 2500 ml of fuel remained in system.

14

Page 25: I .., ,; ,{ Ioi Comparison Associated with Carburetor ...system moisture ingestion, and carburetor anti-deicing. The detailed objectives of this specific effort were to: (1) establish

Whenever a new supply of autogas was brought in, all remaining fuel in left tankwas drained from system.

Several meetings were held with various fuel refinery personnel to discuss autogasfuel specifications. The general consensus was that in five years or so, unleadedautogas would be the only grade of fuel available at a roadside gasoline station.Therefore, testing effort was not expended looking at leaded autogas fuel grades.

As part of engine performance analysis related to various fuels, appendix C testcell data were corrected back to standard day dry air conditions and presentedin appendix F.

Both horsepower and manifold pressure were corrected as outlined by Obert inreference (4) by utilizing a correction factor (Cf):

= Ps - J='vs -v:,To_Cf Po - Pv Ts

HgAstandard water-vapor pressure in standard atmosphere zeroobserved atmospheric temperature during test = oRobserved atmospheric pressure during test = in. HgAwater-vapor pressure in atmosphere during test (obtained frompsychrometric chart using wet and dry bulb temperature duringtest)

Appendix F performance data are presented for corrected manifold pressure, torque(both measured and computed), corrected horsepower, cylinder head temperaturenumber 1 and exhaust gas temperature number 1. All data were graphed against rpmwi th both a rich and lean mixture setting for three grades of fuel. It will benoted in appendix F that individual parameter data graphs for each fuel grade arepresented first, followed by individual parameter graphs containing all three fuelsfor both a rich and lean mixture setting.

A review of appendix F data will show a slight change in engine performance databetween fuel grades for manifold pressure, cylinder head temperature number 1and exhaust gas temperature number 1. Such a slight change in data while measuredwith test cell instrumentation, would not be observed inside the cockpit of anaircraft with existing instrumentation. Horsepower and torque (measured andcomputed) both show a noticeable change in engine performance above cruise power,depending on grade of fuel being utilized. It will be noted that engine perform­ance on 100LL avgas runs less than that obtained with unleaded premium and betterthan that obtained with unleaded regular. However, discussions with the Exper­imental Aircraft Association which has over 700 flight hours in a speciallyinstrumented Cessna ISO/Continental 0-200A autogas flight test aircraft, indicatesthat in-flight performance changes were not measurable between the same three fuelgrades which they also utilized.

Manual performance data for baseline test 2 sequence are presented in appendix D.Additional computer recorded and processed data are provided in appendix G for100LL avgas, appendix H for unleaded premium autogas and appendix I for unleadedregular autogas. These three appendix contain engine performance data obtainedfrom three identical test runs to baseline test 2 sequence. It should be pointed

out that dew point temperature versus time, appendix I, item 1-30, was in acalibration mode during initial start of test sequence, hence the incorrecttemperature indication at start.

After completing the various performance test runs on all three grades of fuelanticipated for use when looking at carburetor icing problems, it was concludedthat performance degradation due to fuel would not be a problem with this aircraftfuel system/engine combination as installed in the test cell.

ENGINE PERFO~~NCE CHANGES DUE TO CARBURETOR ICE.

Once it was determined that overall engine performance would not be changed by fuelgrade, an analysis of the induction system was started. The first series of testruns centered around the total induction system temperature distribution at variousrpm settings and mixture control impact at cruise power. Figure 4(a), (b), (c),and (d) display the overall induction system temperature distribution for allthree grades of fuel. Test point conditions were selected as: 1000-rpm mixturerich, 2300-rpm mixture rich, 2300-rpm mixture lean, and 2750-rpm mixture rich.Figure 4 provides temperature data associated with each grade of fuel as related toinduction system position. These positions are as follows:

1. Carburetor air inlet2. Throttle plate3. Carburetor fuel-air exit4. Cylinder #3 induction tube lower end5. Cylinder #3 induction tube upper end6. Cylinder #3 intake valve port area

It should be noted that fuel tank temperature for avgas and premium were the samewhile regular autogas was 12° F higher. This was the result of test runs beingperformed on different ambient temperature days and not by intent.

As can be seen, the coldest temperature at 1000 rpm occurred at the carburetorexit (position number 3) while at all other rpm conditions the coldest locationoccurred at the throttle plate (position number 2). Of particular interest is thatwith fuel and air temperatures at 60° F and above, the throttle plate will stillreach freezing conditions.

After reviewing figure 4(a), (b), (c), and (d), it was decided that the mostprobable location for carburetor ice to form was the throttle plate. This was alsoconcluded during work effort on reference 2.

Another area of interest related to temperature distribution inside the intakevalve port area. In order to obtain data associated with this engine area, thermo­couples were inserted into the intake port chamber on cylinders numbers 3 and 4.These two cylinders were selected due to easy access and configuration. Cylindernumber 3 intake port which was located at the front of the engine was approximatelysix inches from cylinder number 1 exhaust port. Cylinder number 4 intake port wasalso located at the front of the engine, however, it was less than one-half inchfrom cylinder number 2 exhaust port. With this configuration, it was of interestobtaining data relative to temperature impact cylinder number 2 might impose oncylinder number 4.

FIGURE 5. INTAKE VALVE PORT TEMPERATURE VERSUS RPM (MIXTURE RICH)

When reviewing carburetor ice detection/warning devices such as listed in appendixB, it will be noted that some devices are throttle plate mounted while others mountin the wall of the carburetor venturi. Experience gained during reference 2indicated a temperature differential existed between throttle plate and that whichwas seen by wall mounted device sensors. With this in mind, a series of test runswere made looking at possible temperature differentials.

Wall mounted sensors utilize an existing 1/4-inch hole placed in the carburetorventuri by the carburetor manufacturer. However, on some aircraft installations,this location was not accessible and an alternate location has been utilized.Therefore, this alternate sensor location was also tested for possible temperaturedifferentials. This alternate location required the drilling and tapping of a 1/4­inch hole in the carburetor venturi, approximately 40 degrees displaced fromoriginal location. Refer to appendix E test cell installation photographs.

Figure 6(a), (b), (c), (d), (e), and (f) represent test data obtained with allthree grades of fuel. 1~0 test runs were made on each fuel; one with a carburetortemperature probe in the normal wall position and the other test run with a temper­a ture probe in the alternate position. Carburetor inlet air temperature wasmaintained at 59° F throughout this test series so as to maintain a constantreference point. A review of all six data graphs will show what temperaturedifferential can exist between wall mounted detector sensor and the actual throttleplate temperature. It can be seen that as engine rpm increased, the differentialdecreased, however, with the particular test installation utilized, at no time didthe wall mounted sensor agree with throttle plate temperature.

After reviewing test cell data utilized for figure 6 an additional series of testruns were accomplished with all three grades of fuel looking specifically atthrot tIe plate temperature. These subsequent test runs were performed with bothrich and lean mixture on each fuel with ambient test cell air being inducted intothe carburetor.

Figure 7(a) and (b) display the carburetor throttle plate temperatures, rich andlean mixture, for 100LL avgas. Figure 7(c) and (d) display the throttle platetemperature for premium autogas. It can be seen that autogas will cause a slightlylower temperature than avgas. Figure 7(e) and (f) display the same type of datafor regular autogas. Even with an elevated fuel and inlet air temperature, thethrottle plate reaches freezing temperatures. This appears to be the result ofhigher volatility autogas which had a Reid Vapor Pressure of 9.8 to 11.6 as com­pared to the avgas maximum limit of 7.0.

An even better display of fuel effects on throttle plate temperature can be seen infigure 8. This figure provides throttle plate temperature for all three grades offuel while maintaining constant carburetor air inlet temperature of 59° F. Carbu­retor float bowl temperature is also provided and all three fuels remained +2° Fof the plotted temperature line.

With the effects of various fuel volatility ranges displayed in the data heretoforepresented, a final series of test runs was performed relative to time for carbure­tor ice initiation. In this series of tests, a particular test point rpm wasselected, 1600-2400 for premium/100LL and 1400-2400 for regular/100LL. After astabilized rpm was obtained, carburetor heat was applied to bring throttle plateabove freezing to a starting reference temperature, remove any possible hidden iceaccumulations, and dry out water content on carburetor surfaces. When all condi­tions were stable, carburetor heat was removed and time taken until visible iceformation accumulated. This test pattern was repeated at each test point withpremium autogas/100LL avgas and again with regular autogas/100LL avgas.

A procedure such as outlined above allowed each autogas grade of fuel to bechecked against avgas after a short fuel burn time was allowed to purge oppositefuel out of fuel line and carburetor float bowl. The installation of electricoperated solenoid fuel valves in each fuel tank line, as described in TEST CELLEQUIPMENT portion of report and appendix E, provided easy test operation inthese tests.

Figure 9(a) and (b) provide results of these test runs. With the exception ofpremium autogas at 1600 rpm', figure 9(a), the carburetor tends to start icingseveral minutes sooner with autogas than with 100LL avgas. It should be pointedout that during these icing tests, total carburetor ice accumulation and rate withautogas was no worse than with avgas. Carburetor icing rate is such a variable onany of the three grades of fuel tested, based on rpm and climatic conditions, thatnone appear any worse than the others.

As listed in table 1, idle jet pressure was monitored during icing testing. It wasnoted during reference 2 testing that carburetor idle jet pressure was useful inmonitoring carburetor performance/sensitivity during ice accumulation and propaga­tion. Figure 10 is an idle jet pressure plot versus rpm with pressure beingplotted in inches of mercury vacuum. Figure 10 data were taken from the SUT of oneof the ice warning devices test cycle, wherein slight idle jet pressure fluc­tuations which are evident at 900 and 1300 rpm are attributed to typical enginewarm-up characteristics. Pressure fluctuations at 1800 rpm were typical duringmagneto operational check. This particular test cycle was run with a standardflight propeller and as such, maximum static rpm was 2300 as noted by upper limitof data plot.

Figure 11 reflects idle jet pressure fluctuation during the entire carburetor icingtest cycle initiated in figure 10. Large pressure fluctuations were typical duringcarburetor icing and were detected prior to engine performance change. During somelarge pressure fluctuations, an idle jet vent was opened to check on possiblealteration of engine performance characteristics. Whenever venting was initiated,idle jet pressure would return to near ambient and rpm would increase by 200-300rpm. Exhaust emission analyzing equipment would better identify changes in engineperformance characteristics due to such a venting operation. However, such equip­ment was not available during testing.

During the aforementioned carburetor icing tests, photographs were taken to provideadditional information associated with carburetor ice. Appendix J containscarburetor ice photographs taken during actual engine operation by use of a 35mmcamera adapted to one of the fiberoptic borescopes.

CONCLUSIONS

GENERAL OBSERVATIONS.

The following conclusions relate to engine operation under carburetor icing con­ditions accomplished at sea level conditions only. Engine operation was conductedwith a standard flight propeller which gave a static rpm at full throttle of2300 and a cutoff flight propeller which allowed 2800 rpm at full throttle. Itshould also be remembered that carburetor ice detectors/warning devices, are STCapproved on a non-hazard basis as optional equipment only and flight operationsare not to be predicated on their use. Standard cockpit instrumentation willprovide adequate information relative to carburetor ice when properly monitored.

1. The static test cell engine installation, without actual aircraft cowlingand dynamic flight conditions, allowed an engine heat transfer different from thatimposed in-flight. The test cell installation did not allow the lower engine areato dissipate heat as rapidly as in-flight, and hence, represents a conservativecondition relative to icing.

2. During test cell engine operation, cooling air across the cylinders was held atfour inches of water which is higher than that used in actual aircraft. Thiswould help dissipate engine cylinder head heat at a greater rate.

3. A better understanding of carbureter ice accumulation effects on fuel-air ratiocould have been obtained with the use of exhaust emission analyzer equipment.

4. The initial impact on carburetor performance as ice accumulation commenced wasa fluctuation of idle jet pressure below normal value. Such fluctuation wouldappear long before engine performance change commenced. Idle jet pressure becamean accurate instrument for early detection of carburetor ice formation and workedequally well, regardless of fuel grade utilized.

5. Carburetor ice accumlation rate varies with rpm and ambient atmospheric condi­tions At times, ice accumulation was noted within 30 seconds at low rpm. Theseconditions were true for all grades of fuel tested.

6. The most conducive condition for this test installation to produce carburetorice was with an inlet carburetor air temperature of 40° to 65° F. Autogas wouldfavor the upper temperature while avgas favored the lower limit. Testing was notaccomplished to attempt to place exact limits to any grade of fuel.

7. During all icing testing, throttle plate and carburetor wall right next tothrottle plate were the only locations of ice accumulation.

8. Based on video observations of actual carburetor ice accumulation, the bestlocation for a carburetor ice detector/warning device would be on the throttleplate. Data graphs contained within this report support this fact.

9. Existing throttle plate mounted sensors do not cover the entire throttle platearea. Therefore, ice would build in small amounts on the throttle plate prior toreaching indicator sensor. The amount of ice accumulation was minimal and as notedwithin this report, the location for ice initiation does change with rpm andclimatic conditions.

10. Although there is a temperature differential, wall mounted ice detector/warning devices are useful instruments when used properly as optional equipment fordetecting or warning about possible carburetor ice formation.

RELATED FACTS.

1. Surprisingly, little moisture needs to be present in ambient air to initiatecarburetor ice/frost formation. This is especially true with autogas.

2. All tested carburetor ice detector/warning devices worked equally well on allgrades of fuel tested.

3. Small amounts of ice formation on the manifold side of the throttle plate nextto the idle jet holes will have an immediate impact on idle jet pressure (vacuum).

4. Engine change in performance during carburetor icing was similar for all threegrades of fuel.

5. Autogas with and without anti-icing additives were tested with no appreciabledifference in carburetor icing tendency.

6. Engine performance operation on unleaded premium autogas was slightly betterthan that achieved on 100LL avgas while unleaded regular autogas provided slightlyless performance than 100LL.

7. Cylinder head temperature and exhaust gas temperature as illustrated in appen­dix F will be just as adequate in removing carburetor ice with autogas as withavgas.

8. Current aircraft certification requirements dictate aircraft must provide aminimum 90° F temperature rise to the induction system air. This will be adequatewith autogas grade fuel, even at -15° C (5° F) as indicated on some carburetor icewarning devices.

27

Page 38: I .., ,; ,{ Ioi Comparison Associated with Carburetor ...system moisture ingestion, and carburetor anti-deicing. The detailed objectives of this specific effort were to: (1) establish

9. Existing standard cockpit instrumentation is adequate to detect carburetor iceformation with autogas or avgas. Aircraft/engine performance change will providewarning indications with sufficient time to correct deteriorating conditions priorto engine stoppage.

I 10. Pilot education during student training phase and biennial flight review needsto stress carburetor icing problems, detection indications, and proper correctiveprocedures as specified by aircraft manufacturer in the approved aircraft flightmanuals, especially in aircraft certified by STC for autogas usage.

11. Engine performance changes/data presented within this report relates to thesea-level-static engine installation illustrated in appendix E.

12. Existing carburetors utilize a metal throttle plate which is easily influencedby incoming air. Today's state-of-the-art advancement in composite materials mayaffect added protection from ice formation if used as throttle plate material.Further protection would be achieved if throttle plate were held at 34° F or abovewithout heating the total induction air mass.
