Liquid Oxygen in Fuel
Boosts High Altitude
Plane Speed 4Oh.p.H|
By Thomos R. Henry

Speeds OF airplanes at high alti-
tudes can be increased as much as
40 miles per hour above the MAXI
mum speeds attainable with the
best grades Of aviation gasoline by
injections of small amounts Of
liquid oxygen into the. exploding
mixture Of motor fuel and air, 1t has
just been demonstrated by expert
ments at the Bureau of Standards.
This effect Is independent Of the
design Of plane or motor. There is
considerable evidence that it was
known by the Luftwaffe during the
war but was used only to give extra
bursts of speed to reconnaissance
planes when pursued by the enemy.
During the days of the buzz bomb
the Raj used injections of the fa-
miliar Laughing gas" of dentists
offices.
At high speeds enormous in
creases of power are necessary for
further acceleration. This is espe-
cially true in the rarefied atmos-
phere from 5 to 7 miles above the
earth, says DR.. Ernest F. Flock,
Bureau Of Standards physicist, who
directed the experiments. Liquid
oxygen Is known as the most potent
Of all explosives below the range of
atomic power and ordinarily Is quite
dangerous to handle-a fact which
made it necessary to proceed slowly
and cautiously with the inyesti-
cation.
A major dificulty at high alti-
tudes, DR.. Flock explains, is that
the air is so thin that not enough
| Is drawn into the carburetor I to
provide an adequate mixture. This
Is compensated for by the liquid
oxygen injections, which give the
requisite oxygen in q condensed
form.
At $4,000 feet, DR.. Fiock's tables
show, there was boost of about 400
horsepower with a speed increase of
80 miles per hour after liquid oxygen
injections were started. There was
also a slight decrease In the total
amount Of fuel consumed per horse
power. At $4,000 feet, there was an
increase in power Of 200 horsepower
and speed increase Of is miles per
hour.
With the oxygen injection appa-
ratus developed, the method seems
entirely safe. DR.. Flock and his
associates used 10 tons Of liquid
oxygen without any accident. The
apparatus itself and the amount OF
the liquid which it is necessary to
carry increase the weight of the
plane about 200 pounds.
An unexpected finding was that
the liquid oxygen mixture provided
an almost perfect santiknock fuel.
DR.. Flock had anticipated the oppo-
site. since ordinary oxygen produces
knocks. The difference, he believes,
Is probably due to the temperature
Of the oxygen-180 degrees below
zero (centigrade). This result is
obtained with motors at ground
level, as well as at high attitudes.
The method is applicable, he says,
only to conventional type motors.
