Calorific value= Kilojoules/Kilogram

=500,000/5

=100,000

Therefore the calorific value of the fuel is 100,000

We begin by defining what calorific value of a fuel means.

Calorific value — The heat produced by combustion of a fuel mass.

It is expressed in Joules per Kilograms.

The formula is :

Calorific value = Heat energy in joules / Mass of fuel.

Doing the substitution we have :

500000000 Joules / 5 kg = 100000000 Joules per kg

= 100000kJ/Kg
