When these limits are exceeded, poor ignition characteristics, smoking, unsatisfactory combustor exit temperature distribution, lowered combustion efficiency or formation of carbon may occur. In most cases, fuel heating must be employed to insure that these viscosity limits at the fuel nozzle are met under all ambient conditions. In all cases the fuel at initial light-off must be at or below 10 cSt viscosity. Minimum viscosity limits are imposed to safeguard the high pressure fuel pump, which depends on the lubricating qualities of the fuel for satisfactory operation. It should be noted that naphtha fuel can have a minimum viscosity as low as 0.5 cSt at 100(Degree)F (37.8 (Degree)C).
