NACA Advanced Restricted Reports
To determine the effect of piston-head temperature on knock-limited power, tests were made in a supercharged CFR engine over a range of fuel-air ratios from 0.055 to 0.120, using S-3 reference fuel, AN-F-28, Amendment-2, aviation gasoline, and AN-F-28 plus 2 percent xylidines by weight. Tests were run at a compression ratio of 7.0 with inlet-air temperatures of 150 F and 250 F and at a compression ratio of 8.0 with an inlet-air temperature of 250 F. All other engine conditions were held constant

Report presenting an investigation made on a supercharged CFR engine to determine a method for estimating lead susceptibilities of pure or blended paraffinic fuels. As a result of these studies, a chart consisting of a series of straight lines passing through the origin was developed to represent the lead susceptibilities of pure and blended paraffinic fuels in terms of knock-limited indicated mean effective pressures and octane numbers

An investigation of the antiknock effectiveness of various additive-water solutions when used as internal coolants has been conducted at the NACA Cleveland laboratory. Nine compounds have been previously run in a CFR engine and the results are presented. In an effort to find a good anti-knock-coolant additive with more desirable physical properties than those of the nine compounds previously investigated, water solutions of four alkyl amines, three alkanolamines, six amides, and eight heterocyclic compounds were investigated and the results are presented

NACA Memorandum Reports
"F-3 and F-4 knock data are presented for blends of 0, 20, 40, 60, and 80 percent by volume of triptane in 28-R reference fuel plus approximately 4.6 ml TEL per gallon in the final blends. For comparison of knock-limited performance, 28-R reference fuel containing 2.7 percent by volume of xylidines and leaded to 6 ml TEL per gallon is included. In order to provide information on temperature sensitivities, two sets of modified conditions were used in addition to the standard F-4 engine conditions" (p. 1)

NACA Memorandum Reports
Report discussing testing on triptane, hot-acid octane, diisopropyl, neohexane, mixed xylenes, cumene, benzene, toluene, and methyl tert-butyl ether in several blends to determine their knock-limited performance data in F-3 and F-4 engines at standard operating conditions. All of the blending agents examined were found to be usable, with concentrations varying depending on various thermodynamic properties

Report discusses the "effects of oil introduced into the combustion chamber and of oil-spray piston cooling on the knock-limited performance of aircraft engines" (from Summary). A CFR engine and Allison V-1710 cylinder were used to test the rate of oil consumption, knock, and knock-limited brake mean effective pressure
