When we are making a thermodynamic analysis of a system where diesel fuel is combusted we use the heating value of the fuel. You must determine whether you should use the higher heating value (HHV), or lower heating value (LHV), based on the application. Hope this helps.
The calorific value, or heating value, of diesel fuel is approximately 45 MJ/kg.
The Ph. value of diesel fuel varies depending on its temperature and if its in its natural state or altered. In its natural state the Ph. level is 7.

Diesel has a calorific value of 36 MJ per litre
No. Oxygen is not a fuel, so it has no calorific value. Some people confuse "combustion" (burning a fuel) with "supports combustion" (allows burning to take place). Oxygen supports combustion, but does not burn itself. Therefore it has no calorific value.
Gross calorific value may be converted to net calorific value by using the following equation- Net calorific value = Gross calorific value - (10.02 x Percent Moisture)
The answer will depend, among other things, on the calorific value of the fuel.
calorific value means the total amount of heat energy evolved when 1gm of the fuel is completely burnt. from the combustion equation find out enthalpy of combustion.then divide the molecular weight to that quantity.
The calorific value of fuel is the quantity of heat produced by its combustion at a constant pressure and under normal conditions. For diesel, the calorific value is 44,800.

The higher calorific value of diesel oil is 44,800 kj/kg and 19,300 btu/lb. The lower calorific value of diesel oil is 43,400 kj/kg.

The higher the calorific value of a fuel, the higher its combustion rate is, which is important knowledge to know. A low calorific value indicates more water vapor absorption.
A good fuel is a fuel with a great calorific value; this fuel contain more energy in the unit of mass, it is more economic.
