Abstract
The paper traces the development of fuel high temperature testing since its inception. Specification control tests are emphasized and the reasons for these tests and their operating conditions are given. Both proposed and accepted test methods are examined. Continuing problems with the precision and relevance of these tests are explored and the author's opinions on possible resolutions of these problems are given.
