Aviation Fuel Thermal Properties

Aviation Fuel Thermal Properties

Aviation Fuel Thermal Properties

(OP)
Can anyone point me to a reference for the thermal properties of aviation fuel, specifically Jet A (JP8)? This is needed as I am involved in a design that will require the use of Jet A as a coolant.

RE: Aviation Fuel Thermal Properties

What properties?
See ASTM D 1655 for aviation turbine fuels Jet A or Jet A-1 with distallation, flash point, freeze point, viscosity, heat of combustion, smoke point, etc. and cross references to the testing standards for these properties.  Other ASTM specifications cover Jet B, Jet C-1 etc.
