do you know the properties of these fuels?

[dynoguy]

Hi All,
for my curiosity, and upcoming job interviews, I am putting together a spreadsheet of the properties of fuels. Can anyone help with the: heat content, typical mixture, typical compression ratio, and density of:
auto gasoline, diesel, methanol, nitromethane, and hydrogen?
It's probably on the web somewhere, if anyone knows a link.
Thanks in advance.

btw: does anyone have any leads on calibration engineer job openings?

The Bosch Blue book is considered the "bible" to almost every automotive engineer I know. I actually have 3 of the last 5 printings.

Worth every cent, phinnig, deutshemark, eurodollar, ruble, yen, han, and other currency you can find.

This should be the first question asked of any prospective job applicant, "Which version of the Bosch Blue Book do you have?". If the applicant were to answer that they do not, I would raise serious questions about their training-schooling.
