Aviation Turbine Fuels Type (Jet A-1) 91/91

Description

Aviation Turbine Fuels Type (Jet A*1) *1/*1

Aircraft that are powered by gas-turbine engines will require jet fuel to function. Commercial aviation concerns used Jet A and Jet A1 grade fuels due to the fact that they are produced according to industry specifications. Jet B grade fuel is commonly used by private pilots and aviation concerns. Various hydrocarbons are mixed to form this particular type of fuel.

Some Jet Fuels are not readily available all over the world and the type of jet fuel required will depend on the climate due to the different freezing points of fuels.

Jet fuel can range in colour from colourless to straw-coloured. Jet Fuel A and A1 has a carbon number distribution of between 8 and *6. This measurement is in carbon atoms per molecule. Jet B fuel has a carbon number distribution of between 5 and *5.
