Fuel Oil N¦ 6 vapor pressure
Fuel Oil N¦ 6 vapor pressure
(OP)
Hi,
I need the vapor pressure value for:
- Fuel Oil N°6 at 140°F ( known also as Buncker C )
- Diesel at 68 °F
Thanks

RE: Fuel Oil N¦ 6 vapor pressure
The other way is to back estimate it off the flash point. A lot of HCs have a LEL of about 1 to 2%. If the flash point is 150F, that works out to about 0.22 psia vapor pressure (using the average of 1.5 mol%) at the determined flash temperature and then you can adjust it for the temperature you need.

I'm doing NPSH calculations. I'll use the 0.1 psia and hope no bubbles will be present at the pump !!
