curve, given by the 50 percent value and a 

±

1- 

standard deviation, as shown in Table 1 of 
this appendix. 

(ii) The flammability envelope of the fuel 

that must be used for the flammability expo-
sure analysis is a function of the flash point 
of the fuel selected by the Monte Carlo for a 
given flight. The flammability envelope for 
the fuel is defined by the upper flammability 
limit (UFL) and lower flammability limit 
(LFL) as follows: 

(A) LFL at sea level = flash point tempera-

ture of the fuel at sea level minus 10 

°

F. LFL 

decreases from sea level value with increas-
ing altitude at a rate of 1 

°

F per 808 feet. 

(B) UFL at sea level = flash point tempera-

ture of the fuel at sea level plus 63.5 

°

F. UFL 

decreases from the sea level value with in-
creasing altitude at a rate of 1 

°

F per 512 

feet. 

(4) For each flight analyzed, a separate 

random number must be generated for each 
of the three parameters (ground ambient 
temperature, cruise ambient temperature, 
and fuel flash point) using the Gaussian dis-
tribution defined in Table 1 of this appendix.
