Jet fuel or aviation turbine fuel is a type of fuel designed for use in aircraft powered by gas-turbine engines. It is a mixture of hydrocarbons, and its exact composition varies based on the petroleum source. The most commonly used fuels for commercial aviation are Jet A and Jet A-1, which are produced to a standardized international specification. These fuels have a carbon number distribution between 8 and 16, and their performance is defined by requirements such as freezing point or smoke point. Jet fuel is used in turbine engines, which can operate with a wide range of fuels because fuel is injected into the hot combustion chamber.learn more on wikipedia
