Can someone provide the thermal expansion coefficient for typical residual fuel oil?

Thanks,
lacheme
 
I have two references at 25°C that may help you:
jet fuel, kerosene, 990e-6 K-1
gazoline, 950e-6 K-1
Typically for medium & short organic liquids (<C10), the values are in the range 1e-2 to 1e-4 at 25°C
