Jet Fuel Properties

Abstract

This report contains a summary of jet fuel physical properties for conventional and alternative (non-petroleum) fuels. Amongst the properties included in the report are density, viscosity, distillation, composition, derived cetane number, enthalpy, surface tension, freeze point, flash point, and net heat of combustion. Several properties are demonstrated to need further study.
