Jet fuel, specifically Jet A, has a flash point of around 38-40°C (100-104°F) and can ignite at temperatures as low as this. The maximum burning temperature of jet fuel in an open flame can reach approximately 980-1,500°C (1,800-2,700°F), depending on the conditions. However, in practical scenarios, the combustion temperature can vary based on factors like air-fuel mixture and pressure.
Jet fuel is high grade diesel so a jet fuel car would use high grade diesel fuel.
Avgas, or if it has a jet engine, it would use either Jet-A1 or Jet-B fuel.
Because the spark plugs cannot ignite the jet fuel. Jet fuel is not comparable to a really high octane gasoline, as many people seem to mistakenly think. Jet fuel is essentially #1 diesel fuel.
There are 2 different fuel types but Jet A is the most common. Jet A / Jet A-1: 0.775 to 0.840 kg/L Jet B: 0.751 to 0.802 kg/L
Jet fuel is kerosene base turbine aviation fuel
'JP-7', where JP stands for 'Jet Propellant' is a jet fuel for the use in supersonic aircraft because of its high flash and thermal stability. For example in SR-71,because of the high temp. environment in which the engine operates, it uses low volatile JP 7 jet fuel which requires a chemical ignition system.
No. Jet fuel is closely related to kerosene and diesel fuel.
No, jet fuel is not conductive. It is a hydrocarbon-based liquid that is not electrically conductive.

The cost of jet fuel can vary significantly based on market conditions, location, and time, but as of late 2023, the average price of jet fuel was around $3 to $4 per gallon. Given that there are approximately 6.7 pounds in a gallon, 50,000 pounds of jet fuel would be about 7,462 gallons. At an average price of $3.50 per gallon, the total cost would be approximately $26,100.
