Abstract

This study is a continuation of a U.S. Air Force/Navy/Army and FAA sponsored program, currently being conducted at NIST, to further evaluate some thermodynamic properties of the four selected alternative agents for in-flight aircraft fire protection in both dry bays and engine nacelles. The four selected agents are HFC-227ea, CF3I, FC-218, and HFC-125.
