1. The energy available from hydrogen is listed in heat of combustion . 2. Ethanol BTUs can be compared with gasoline BTUs in heat of combustion tables. 3. The heat of combustion is 122 MJ / m 3 4. The heat of combustion of wood is typically 15-18 MJ / kg. 5. Angle strain destabilizes a molecule, as manifested in higher reactivity and elevated heat of combustion . 6. DEG has a higher heat of combustion than ethanol or methanol gel at 2155 kJ / mol. 7. The fuel should have high heat of combustion and produce oxides with low melting point and high boiling point. 8. This compares well with the modern published heat of combustion for carbon of 2.13 kcal / g. 9. This system relies on having measured heats of combustion of a wide range of isolated proteins, fats and carbohydrates. 10. Ethanol is a more energetic fuel giving 1300kJ / mol heat of combustion compared to methanol s 726kJ / mol.
