Jet fuel comes in two basic types, Jet A and Jet B. Jet A-1 is the most common in use and there are other military spec fuels
Both are kerosene and paraffin oil based fuels. These are very similar to diesel fuel, stove oil or lamp oil.
Jet B is the more flammable of the two as it is made of hydrocarbons in the naptha/kerosene range for better cold weather service.
In either case the flammability is similar to or less than than gasoline, for Jet A it can be compared to diesel oil.
A third similar fuel is Avgas (Aviation Gasoline) which is a high octane gasoline similar to motor fuel.It is more flammable than gasoline or either of the jet fuels.
Rubbing alcohol more flammable.
There are different types of jet fuel. Standard ones are Jet A and Jet A-1. Jet A freezing point = -40 C Jet A-1 freezing point = -47 C Google it!
gas becase its a fuel and dose not have flames if you spill it it will explode
Flammability refers to the ability of a material to ignite and burn when exposed to a heat source or flame. Materials that are highly flammable pose a greater fire risk compared to those that are less flammable.
A barrel of jet fuel typically weighs around 290-310 pounds when full.
Rubbing alcohol more flammable.
Jet cars have jet engines; because of that they need a special fuel to power them. Most use aviation turbine fuel but some use a special blend made for race cars. This type of fuel is extremely flammable and is only stocked and sold to professionals.
Air is sucked into the engine using giant fans called axial compressors (compressors for short), which compress the air into a very dense structure. The air is then mixed with jet fuel which creates a very potent flammable mixture which is then lit. After the fuel and air is lit, there is a constant controlled explosion where the air and fuel turns into gas and expands extremely fast and is forced out the back of the jet. Without the fuel, the air would not ignite. Jet fuel is different from gasoline used in passenger cars and has more in common with diesel fuel in which both diesel and jet fuel are designed to have high flash points and allows for high compression.
Jet fuel is kerosene base turbine aviation fuel
No. Jet fuel is closely related to kerosene and diesel fuel.
No, jet fuel is not conductive. It is a hydrocarbon-based liquid that is not electrically conductive.
3000 gallons of Jet fuel
AFFF stands for Aqueous Film-Forming Foam. It is a type of firefighting foam used to suppress fires by creating a film on the fuel surface, preventing the release of flammable vapors. AFFF is commonly used for combating fires involving flammable liquids, such as gasoline or jet fuel.
Most common jet fuel is kerosine based and not corrosive.Most common jet fuel is kerosine based and not corrosive.

Jet fuel is what powers the jet engine.Its a bit like putting petrol in your car.No fuel then you wont be going anywhere!
Jet fuel is high grade diesel so a jet fuel car would use high grade diesel fuel.
