Petrol has higher calorific value 44000kj/kg but solid fuels has lesser C.V than petrol. Either gas fuels has also less C.V than petrol.

Liquid Fuels have higher calorific value compared to solid fuels per unit mass because solid fuels contain moisture and unwanted materials that's why they produce ash after combustion.

Liquid fuel has higher calorific value compared to solid fuel cause solid contained some air, moisture and dust.

Aath said:   9 years ago
Liquid fuels should have high calorific value in general.

Venkat said:   9 years ago
It is Liquid fuel has high calorific value than solid fuel.
