  2. JPTS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JPTS

    JPTS has a flash point of 43 °C (110 °F), a freezing point of -53 °C (-64 °F) [3] and flammability limits of 1 and 6 %. It has an appearance of a water-white clear liquid with specific gravity of 0.816. It is insoluble in water. It is composed of a complex mixture of petroleum hydrocarbons. [4]

  3. Jet fuel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jet_fuel

    It was a pure kerosene fuel with high flash point (relative to aviation gasoline) and a freezing point of −60 °C (−76 °F). The low freezing point requirement limited availability of the fuel and it was soon superseded by other "wide cut" jet fuels which were kerosene-naphtha or kerosene-gasoline blends. It was also known as avtur. JP-2

  4. JP-4 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JP-4

    JP-4 froze at −76 °F (−60 °C), and its maximum burning temperature was 6,670 °F (3,688 °C). [citation needed] JP-4 was a non-conductive liquid, prone to build up static electricity when being moved through pipes and tanks. As it is volatile and has a low flash point, the static discharge could cause a fire.

  5. JP-8 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JP-8

    The resulting fuel has identical properties to JP-8, save for a higher freezing-point specification. [15] The U.S. military has switched to F-24 in domestic (excluding Alaska) sites in 2012. [ 16 ] In 2018, it was found that the F-24 mixture could deteriorate during transport causing much reduced thermal stability, but addition of the +100 ...

  6. JP-10 (fuel) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JP-10_(fuel)

    It has a low freezing point of less than −110 °C (−166 °F) and the flash point is 130 °F (54 °C). The high energy density of 39.6 MJ/L makes it ideal for military aerospace applications - its primary use. The ignition and burn chemistry has been extensively studied. [8] [9] [10] The exo isomer also has a low freezing point.

  7. Flash point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flash_point

    A diesel-fueled engine has no ignition source (such as the spark plugs in a gasoline engine), so diesel fuel can have a high flash point, but must have a low autoignition temperature. Jet fuel flash points also vary with the composition of the fuel. Both Jet A and Jet A-1 have flash points between 38 and 66 °C (100 and 151 °F), close to that ...

    The Pratt & Whitney J58 (JT11D-20) turbojet aero engine, which had a specific fuel requirement; namely JP-7 turbine fuel.. Turbine Fuel Low Volatility JP-7, commonly known as JP-7 (referred to as Jet Propellant 7 prior to MIL-DTL-38219 [1]) is a specialized type of jet fuel developed in 1955 for the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) for use in its reconnaissance aircraft, the Lockheed A-12 ...
