Diesel fuels have different chemical compositions, which affect the boiling point. Conventional diesel fuels usually have a boiling range of about 149 degrees C to 371 degrees C.

How do you increase the flash point in diesel oil?

A low flash point in diesel is caused by contamination of the diesel with lighter petroleum products such as kerosene or gasoline. Drawing more lighter products out of the fractionation tower could reduce contamination of the heavier products. Improving fractionation and improving diesel product stripping performance will raise the flash point.


What is Standard value of flash point of diesel?

All fuel oils have a flash point of 490F (254C). Distillate fuels have lower flash points.

Can you use diesel in a zippo?

No, you can't. Diesel has much too high a flash point and won't ignite in a Zippo.

Which catches fire more quickly petrol or diesel?

petrol has a lower flash point and is more volatile than diesel.


Why does a diesel engine use a different type of fuel?

Diesel engines do not require "ignition" to burn diesel fuel--it is powered by the "heat of compression" therefore diesel fuel has a much higher "flash point" than gasoline. If you were to put gasoline in a diesel engine you would probably blow the heads off the engine. Due to lower "flash point" (temperature when fuel ignites). If you were to put diesel fuel in a gasoline powered engine, it would not ignite and engine will not start. Due to higher "flash point).


What burns longer diesel or oil?

Oil, it has a lower flash point and is less volatile.
