dc.description.abstractHydrocarbon compounds are formed by carbon and hydrogen elements. The higher heating values (HHVs) of the hydrocarbon compounds can be calculated based on the carbon (C) and hydrogen (H) contents of the chemical structures. HHVs (MJ / kg) as a function of the carbon (C) and hydrogen (H) fractions of N-saturated hydrocarbons can be calculated by the following equation: HHV = 0.303 (C)+ 1.423 (H) According to this Equation, the HHV is a function of the percentages of the carbon (C) and hydrogen (H) of pure n-saturated hydrocarbon compounds. This Equation represents the correlation obtained by means of regression analysis. It is found that the calculated values shows mean difference of 0.18%. The correlation coefficient is 0.9955. HHVs as a function of the iodine value (IV) and the saponification value (SV) of fatty acids can be calculated by the following equation: HHV(MJ/kg) = 49.43 − 0.015(IV)−0.041(SV). © 2018 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
