Re: Published Accounts of the Fw 200 C-3 – A Critique on Water-Methanol Injection

An addendum: there is an equation which allows converting octane numbers to PN (and vice versa): PN=2800/(128-octane number). Examples. Octane number 100 gives 2800/(128-100)=100. Octane number 90 gives a PN=2800/(128-90)=2800/38=c. 74. And and ON=80 gives a PN of 58. As can be seen, the anti-detonation efficiency of the fuel rises greatly when the octane number approaches its maximum (100).
