It is the amount of heat produced by the complete combustion of a unit weight of fuel.
Usually expressed in calories per gram or BTU's (British Thermal Units) per
pound, the latter being numerically 1.8 times the former.
Petroleum Is a fossil fuel
The calorific value of 35 sec fuel oil, also known as light fuel oil or kerosene, typically ranges from 42 to 45 MJ/kg (megajoules per kilogram). This value can vary slightly based on the specific composition and quality of the oil. In general, 35 sec fuel oil is used in various heating applications and as a fuel for engines due to its high energy content. Always refer to specific supplier data for precise calorific values.

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 calorific value of mineral oil typically ranges from 38-42 megajoules per kilogram. This value represents the amount of energy released when the oil is burned completely.
38.13 mj/l
Calorific energy refers to the amount of heat energy released by burning a certain amount of fuel. It is commonly used to measure the energy content of fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas. The higher the calorific value of a fuel, the more energy it can produce when burned.
The calorific value of one litre of extra light oil amounts to 10 kWh, as does the calorific value of 1m3 of gas. It is therefore true that: 2kg pellets ~ 1 litre extra light oil ~ 1m3 gas. In terms of price pellets do significantly better than oil and LPG.
No. 6 fuel oil has a combustion value of 151,300 - 155,900 Btu/US gallon.
The calorific value of lube oil typically ranges between 38 to 42 megajoules per kilogram (MJ/kg), depending on its composition and specific formulation. This value indicates the amount of energy released during the combustion of the oil. Lube oils are primarily used for lubrication and cooling in engines and machinery, and their calorific value can influence their performance and efficiency in certain applications.
Hi there, It should around 44 Mj/Kg.
#2 fueloil is 140,000btu per gal. Propane is about 79,000btu per gal. check with local propane supplier but 78k-79k per gal rings my bell. geterdone
