Report presenting an investigation of several fuels in a 16-inch ramjet engine during a free-jet investigation of ramjet performance in a wind tunnel. The fuels used were gasoline, kerosene, blend of 50-percent gasoline and 50-percent propylene oxide, blend of 75-percent kerosene and 25-percent propylene oxide, and isopentane. Results regarding ranges of operation, combustion efficiencies, and weight and volume specific fuel consumptions obtained with various fuels.
