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.
"Diesel:
Flash point > 62°C
Autoignition temperature: 210°C

What is the boiling point of diesel in Celsius
Diesel is not a single chemical compound but a mixture of hydrocarbons with different boiling point ranging from 180 to 360 deg C.
for gasoline it varies from 100 to 400 c.
The boiling point of Diesel is 154.305 oC
Near 145 c
Petrol first. it has a lower flash point than diesel.
Actually, diesel is quite a tricky thing to get lit. Diesel's flash point (depending on what text book you read) varies from 100 degrees - 140 degrees F. Flash point means at which temperature the liquid releases a flammable vapor. Therefore, by simply throwing a match on it, unless the diesel is already pre-heated to the temperature, the match will simply go out. By applying pressure to the diesel, (enormous amounts) you can create a pressure explosion --- what happens in a diesel engine.
Will Raise the flash point !
Ethanol: Flash point is 13 °CPropanol: Flash point is 22 °CHexanol: Flash point is 59 °CVegetable oil: Flash point is 327 °C
The flash point of natural gas is 500 F
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.
All fuel oils have a flash point of 490F (254C). Distillate fuels have lower flash points.
Flash point means nothing but the amount of heat it takes to make the Gasoline or Diesel combust
flash point of petrol is > -45 degree celsius flash point of diesel is 52-95 degree celsius
between 126 - 204 deg F.
Petrol first. it has a lower flash point than diesel.
like for example if a diesel sample is contaminated by paraffin and the flash point is altered is the IBP also altered?
No, you can't. Diesel has much too high a flash point and won't ignite in a Zippo.
D2 Diesel flash point, 126 degrees F.D2 Diesel autoignition temp, 493 degrees F.
petrol has a lower flash point and is more volatile than diesel.
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).
Oil, it has a lower flash point and is less volatile.
