How much does 1 liter of Jet A fuel weigh?

It depends on the type of aviation fuel that you are talking about though the SG (specific gravity) of AVCAT+FSII is around 0.8200 - 0.8400 Kg/L. So the SG of water is 1.000Kg/L therefore if water is 1kg/L AVCAT is 0.82Kg/l. Another example ist he JET A1 with a density of 0.804 g/cm3.


How much fuel does a jet engine burn per hour?

Airliner jet engines such as a Boeing 737 burns about 3,500 pounds of fuel per hour at cruising altitude and speed. Thats a little over 500 gallons per hour per engine.


At what temperature does jet fuel freeze?

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!


Does temperature variation affect jet fuel volume?

Yes, temperature variation can affect the volume of jet fuel. Jet fuel expands in warmer temperatures and contracts in colder temperatures, leading to changes in volume. It is important for airlines to account for temperature variations when fueling aircraft to ensure accurate fuel quantity measurements.


Does jet fuel melt steel beams?

It doesn't dissolve steel beams, but jet fuel can under some conditions burn hot enough to at least soften steel beams, which can cause them to collapse if they're under load.The open air burning temperature of jet fuel A or A1 (the most common types of commercial jet fuels in the US) is about 2000 degrees Fahrenheit or less; most steels melt at about 2500 Fahrenheit, so if you just lay a beam on a puddle of burning fuel it's unlikely to melt. However, that much heat will cause the steel beams to expand, and if they're bolted together that will disrupt the stability of a structure... in addition to the softening (structural steel loses about 50% of its strength at as low as 1100 degrees, and over 1800 degrees the figure is closer to 90%).Also, in a forced air draft jet fuel burns considerably hotter than it does if it's just sitting there in still air. Under optimal conditions ... such as those found in a jet engine ... jet fuel may burn at closer to 4000 degrees.
