Abstract

This chapter discusses the historical approaches to monitoring aviation fuel quality, and the current industry movement towards continuous monitoring electronic measurement systems. The application of mature technology from other industries is reviewed and found to be inadequate. A new type of sensing system designed specifically for the needs of aviation fuel quality is introduced, showing advanced user features and proven to be far more accurate than any other method current available. This article also discusses a typical problem in real world applications where a combination of contaminant is encountered, and how only the new type of sensing system can properly measure the contamination to aviation fuel quality specifications.
