Abstract
Endothermic hydrocarbon fuel (EHF) is used as on-board coolant quenching the combustors of advanced aircrafts through sensible and endothermic pyrolysis reactions. The supercritical pyrolysis of EHFs was experimentally investigated under conditions (3.5 MPa, 525-600 <sup>o</sup>C) in a stainless steel mini-tubular reactor heated by a fluidized sand bath system.
