ASTM D3338 - Estimation of Net Heat of Combustion of Aviation Fuels

We perform BTU testing by ASTM D3338 to estimate the net heat of combustion of aviation gasolines and jet fuels. This test method covers the estimation of the net heat of combustion (megajoules per kilogram or [Btu per pound]) of aviation gasolines and aircraft turbine and jet engine fuels in the range from 40.19 to 44.73 megajoules per kilogram or [17 280 to 19 230 Btu per pound].

We also perform BTU testing by ASTM D240, ASTM D4529, and IP 381. These different test methods use different instruments or procedures or are used for certain sample types. Click on the test method number to learn more about each test.
