(Otomotiv) kerosene
A petroleum based thin and colorless fuel; paraffin

The kerosene lasted all winter, so the furnace kept us always warm.

{i} thin oil distilled from petroleum and used as a fuel or solvent
Light hydrocarbon distillate Includes vaporizing oil for use in reciprocating engines (primarily tractors), lamp oil, and kerosene and heating oil
Diesel fuel No longer generally used for motor vehicles Used for heating, cooking, lighting and other non-highway use
- a medium-light oil used for lighting, heating and aircraft fuel
Light hydrocarbon distillate Includes vaporizing oil for use in reciprocating engines (primarily tractors), lamp oil and kerosene and heating oil
It consists chiefly of several hydrocarbons of the methane series
The petroleum fraction containing hydrocarbons that are slightly heavier than those found in gasoline and naphtha Kerosene (also spelled kerosene) was the most important petroleum product because of its use for home and commercial lighting; in recent years demand has risen again as a result of kerosene's use in gas turbines and jet engines
"Coal Oil", in the UK "Paraffin" (as named by its Patentee, James Young), "lamp fuel" to many Technically: Specific gravity: 0 775 to 0 78; Distillation Initial Boiling point: 340 deg F minimum; Distillation final ("Dry Point"): 550 deg F maximum;Flash Point: 115 deg F minimum
An oil used for illuminating purposes, formerly obtained from the distillation of mineral wax, bituminous shale, etc
and hence called also coal oil
A petroleum distillate that boils at a temperature between 300 degrees and 550 degrees Fahrenheit Kerosene is used in space heaters, cook stoves, and water heaters, and is suitable for use as an illuminant when burned in wick lamps
All grades of kerosene, including, but not limited to, the 2 grades of kerosene, No 1-K and No 2-K, commonly known as K-1 kerosene and K-2 kerosene respectively, described in American society for testing and materials specifications D-3699, in effect on January 1, 1999, and kerosene-type jet fuel described in American society for testing and materials specification D and military specifications MIL-Tr and MIL-Td (grades jp and jp-8), and any successor internal revenue service rules or regulations, as the specification for kerosene and kerosene-type jet fuel
A petroleum distillate that has a maximum distillation temperature of 401oF at the 10-percent recovery point, a final boiling point of 572oF, and a minimum flash point of 100oF Used in space heaters, cookstoves, and water heaters, and suitable for use as an illuminant when burned in wick lamps
A petroleum based thin and colorless fuel oil, (paraffin in British English.)
a flammable hydrocarbon oil used as fuel in lamps and heaters
A lesser-refined grade of fuel used primarily for heating or lighting Kerosine is usually used for aviation (jet) fuel, although in England it is also known as paraffin when used for domestic heating oil English globes for paraffin are not uncommon; Pink Paraffin (a Shell/BP joint venture), Esso Blue and Gainsborough Gold are among the colourful variants found
Kerosene is a clear, strong-smelling liquid which is used as a fuel, for example in heaters and lamps. = paraffin. a clear oil that is burnt to provide heat or light British Equivalent: paraffin (keros + -ene ). or kerosine Organic compound, a clear, oily, highly flammable liquid with a strong odour, distilled from petroleum (10-25% of total volume). It is a mixture of about 10 different types of fairly simple hydrocarbons, depending on its source. It is less volatile than gasoline, boiling at 285-610 °F (140-320 °C). It is burned in lamps, heaters, and furnaces and is used as a fuel or fuel component for diesel and tractor engines, jet engines, and rockets and as a solvent for greases and insecticides
It is now produced in immense quantities, chiefly by the distillation and purification of petroleum
