The liquid fuels consist of hydrocarbons so the liquid fuels have higher calorific value than solid fuels. A good fuel should have low ignition point.

Solid fuel has greater caorific value than liquid fuel.

Yes, right @Venkat.

Liquid fuel has a lower calorific value from solid fuel.

Solid fuel >liquid fuel.

It is Gas<liquid<solid.

Liquid fuel< solid fuel.

Solid fuels only higher calorific value then the liquid fuels.

Venkat said:   9 years ago
Calorific value of gasoline 47300 kj/kg.

Calorific value of coal 29600 kj/kg.

Liquid fuels > solid fuels.

Solid fuel has more contamination that's why it produces the ash while burning.

This is wrong. Solid fuel always have higher calorific value.
