Is there any way to quickly determine the cetane number of diesel?
Thread Content
I recently heard of a method by which the cetane number of diesel can be roughly determined based on the value of the 50% cut point in its distillation range. I’m not sure if this makes sense; I’d like to hear from the experts on this matter
That is the cetane number index, which is calculated based on density, initial boiling point, 50% boiling point, and final boiling point. The cetane number and cetane index are not very different
