Jet A and Jet A1 are kerosene type jet fuels and the most common fuels used in commercial jet engines. The primary differences between Jet A and Jet A-1 are the higher freezing point of Jet A (−40 °C vs −47 °C for Jet A-1), and the mandatory requirement for the addition of an anti-static additive to Jet A-1.
The only other jet fuel commonly used in civilian turbine-engine powered aviation is Jet B which is used for its enhanced cold-weather performance.
Kerosene-type jet fuel (including Jet A and Jet A-1) has a carbon number distribution between about 8 and 16 carbon numbers; wide-cut or naphtha-type jet fuel (including Jet B), between about 5 and 15 carbon numbers.
Jet A-1 Fuel must meet the specification for DEF STAN 91-91 (Jet A-1), ASTM specification D1655 (Jet A-1) and IATA Guidance Material (Kerosine Type), NATO Code F-35.

What is tenery form?
A-B-A1
What is the thermal expansion coefficient for JET A1?
The thermal expansion coefficient for Jet A1 fuel is typically around 0.0008 per degree Celsius. This means that for every degree increase in temperature, the fuel will expand by about 0.08% of its original volume.
How much does jet a1 fuel cost?
The price for jet a1 fuel varies over time. In March 2013, the price was 303.0 US cents per gallon. Converted to barrels, this would be 127.2 US dollar per barrel.
What the range of density of jet A1?
Kerosene type BP Jet A-1, 43.15 MJ/kg, density at 15 C is 804 kg/m3

What is the difference in JP-54 and Jet A1 fuels?
JP-54 and Jet A1 are both aviation fuels, but they serve different purposes. JP-54 is a high-grade jet fuel primarily used in military applications and certain commercial aviation, known for its higher performance and stability in extreme conditions. In contrast, Jet A1 is a kerosene-type fuel commonly used in commercial aviation worldwide, meeting specific standards for safety and environmental regulations. The main differences lie in their intended applications, performance specifications, and chemical compositions.
