What is the standard flash point of diesel?
1 Answers
Diesel's flash point refers to the lowest temperature at which it can vaporize to form an ignitable mixture in air under specified conditions. Here are relevant details: 1. Diesel: The primary use of diesel is in diesel engines for vehicles and ships. Compared to gasoline, diesel has higher energy density and lower fuel consumption rate. Due to its low energy consumption, some small cars and even high-performance vehicles have switched to diesel. 2. Flash point level: The flash point of diesel mainly relates to its volatility. Lighter fractions evaporate more easily, resulting in lower flash points. The lower the flash point of diesel, the more easily it can be ignited by a flame, increasing fire hazard risks.
