The aviation industry continually seeks innovative solutions to improve aircraft performance, extend service life, and reduce operational costs, with many promising advancements having come about over time. One of the most notable examples of this in recent years is digital twin technology, a powerful tool that creates a virtual replica of physical assets to monitor, predict, and optimize their performance.

When it comes to powering aircraft, the type of fuel used for combustion can significantly impact performance, efficiency, and safety. Two primary categories of fuel dominate the aviation sector, those of which are jet fuel and aviation fuel. Understanding the differences between these fuels is essential for anyone involved in the aviation industry to ensure that the right choice is made for operational needs. This blog aims to clarify these distinctions by exploring the compositions, uses, and the types of aircraft engines both fuel types are designed for, so read on as we provide a brief overview.
