Do airplanes use diesel or gasoline?

[LeHeidi]

Airplanes use aviation kerosene, not gasoline or diesel. Aircraft fuel has many requirements, such as: appropriate density, good combustibility, ability to achieve complete combustion, minimal carbon deposits, good fluidity at low temperatures, high cleanliness, good oxidation resistance, and stable combustion. The reasons why airplanes use aviation kerosene are as follows: 1. Aviation kerosene: Aviation kerosene has high lubricity, cleanliness, and heat properties, low corrosiveness, and more stable combustion. 2. Gasoline: Gasoline is highly effective, easy to burn, and has low safety. 3. Diesel: Diesel has a higher density, higher viscosity, is prone to freezing, and only very fine nozzles can atomize the fuel, making it unsuitable for aircraft engines.
