Bookmark or Share- Jet fuel - WikipediaJet fuel or aviation turbine fuel (ATF, also abbreviated avtur) is a type of aviation fuel designed for use in aircraft powered by gas-turbine engines. It is colorless to straw-colored in appearance. The most commonly used fuels for commercial aviation are Jet A and Jet A-1, which are produced to a standardized international specification.
- ExxonMobil Jet A-1ExxonMobil Jet A-1. Jet A and Jet A-1 are kerosene-type fuels. The primary difference between the two is freeze point, the temperature at which wax crystals disappear in a laboratory test.
- Jet fuel: all about aviation fuel, its origin and types - AeroTimeJet fuel plays a key role in aviation, powering aircraft engines and facilitating efficient air travel. Let’s delve into the history, composition and different types of jet fuel, and explore how it differs from gasoline. We’ll also examine the future of sustainable jet fuel, including biofuels.
- Civil Aviation Fuel | Jet Fuel Specifications - Shell GlobalJet A is a kerosine grade fuel, normally only available in the U.S.A. It has the same flash point as Jet A-1 but a higher freeze point maximum (-40°C). It is supplied against the ASTM D1655 (Jet A) specification. Jet B is a distillate covering the naphtha and kerosine fractions.
- Different Types Of Jet Fuel: Avgas Vs Jet A1 - Simple FlyingJet fuel has certain key advantages for jet aircraft: It has a lower freezing point, essential for high-altitude flying. Jet A1 has a freezing point of -47 degrees Celsius, and Jet A slightly higher at -40 degrees. It has a higher flashpoint and is, therefore, safer to transport.
