What type of fuel does a turboprop engine use?
jet fuel
Do helicopters use jet fuel?
The type of fuel is specific to the type of engine, not the aircraft. Helicopters that have jet engines use jet fuel, and helicopters that have internal combustion engines use gasoline. However the General Electric T-58 had a device in the fuel control that allowed you to burn just about anything from avgas to jet fuel to kerosene.
What fuel do Boeing 777 jets use?
Kerosene type 2 (JET FUEL)
Airbus 320 use what type of fuel?
The Airbus A320 uses Jet A / Jet A-1 type fuel
Can you use jet fuel in a home heat oil furnaces?
It would depend on the type of burner in your oil furnace and the type of jet fuel. I recommend that you contact the manufacturer of your furnace first.
What type of fuel does airbus A330 use?
All types of Airbus, including the A330, use standard aviation fuel known as 'Jet A' in North America and 'Jet A-1' in the rest of the world.
What is the fuel called in fighter jet?
Most use JP-1 a type of kerosene.
What fuel type does the airbus a380 use?
The A380 uses the same fuel as all other airliners, known in the USA as 'Jet-A' and most other places as Jet Fuel. This is a kerosene based fuel similar to diesel.
How do you convert liters to gallons for jet A1?
There are two main types of jet fuel used for commercial turbine engines. The vast majority of turbine engines use a kerosene type of fuel, labeled Jet A-1 or Jet A. A blended kerosene and gasoline type, considered "wide-cut" and labeled Jet B, is rarely used except in very cold climates. Military jet fuels use variations of these two fuels, with the majority using the kerosene-type jet fuel.- Determine the number of gallons of jet fuel to be weighed.- Select the conversion factor, determined by the type of fuel. For kerosene types of fuel, use 6.76 pounds per U.S. gallon. For wide-cut kerosene types of fuel, use 6.36 pounds per U.S. gallon. If you are uncertain of the fuel type, use the standard kerosene type fuel conversion, since the other type is rarely used.- Multiply the number of gallons by the conversion factor. As an example, a Boeing 747 holds 57,164 gallons of fuel. Multiplying this by 6.76 pounds per gallon gives you the total fuel weight of 386,429 pounds.
Type of fuel use for Boeing 747-400?

What gas does a airplane use?

What type of fuel does a helicopter use?
turbine helicopters take either JP-4 or JP-5 grade jet fuel.
