Bulk Modulus of Jet-A fuel

[JLR10]

I need to find out the bulk modulus of Jet-A fuel

 

[BigInch]

I think I can make a busines out of this one,

Bulk Modulus (for most any hydrocarbon liquid) PSI =100000*exp(1.9947-0.00013427*TempF -0.79392/SG^2-0.002326*TempF/SG^2)

TempF = Temperature of the hydrocarbon liquid Fº
SG = specific gravity at your TempF

Note: not the isothermal bulk modulus or the adiabatic bulk modulus. Adiabatic Bulk modulus is about 15% higher,
Isothermal Bulk modulus is about 15% lower.

Tabulated typical isothermal bulk modulus values for liquid petroleum fractions, from gasoline to lube oils, kerosine included, are around 180,000-190,000 psi at 15^oC.

Hi BigInch,

Could you please advise the reference from which your formula came?

Cheers
