SUMMARY
The heat capacity values of diesel fuel in both liquid and vapor states are critical for various engineering applications. The discussion highlights the need for specific measurements, noting that values can vary based on the composition of the diesel. For generic diesel, the heat capacity is approximately 2.1 J/g·K in the liquid state and around 1.1 J/g·K in the vapor state. These values are essential for accurate thermodynamic calculations in combustion processes.
