🔍 Key Concepts

• Flash point vs fire point – how each relates to when fuel vapors can ignite • How fuel handling safety limits are set for transfer and pumping operations • Why specific gravity and viscosity matter for engine performance but not primary ignition danger

💭 Think About

• First, define in your own words what flash point is and what fire point is. Which one refers to the very first temperature at which vapors can ignite at all? • When you decide if a fuel is safe to load, transfer, or store in a tank, which temperature characteristic is used in regulations as the basic safety limit? • Ask yourself: for pumpability and atomization in burners, which properties (from the choices) are mainly important for performance rather than immediate ignition risk?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be clear on which term means initial vapor ignition vs sustained burning • Confirm which property is commonly specified in fuel specs as “must be above X °F/°C for safe storage and handling” • Eliminate options that mainly affect density/buoyancy or flow/thickness rather than ignition temperature
