naphtha engines
27; Naphtha is a clear liquid hydrocarbon that is produced during the fractional distillation of crude petroleum oil or coal tar. Naphtha distills off between gasoline and kerosene. The naphtha used for boat engines was special in that it had a specific gravity of 76 degrees Baume, whereas naphtha used by painters had a specific gravity of 60 degrees (0.68 vs 0.74). Naphtha has a heat of vaporization lower than water, which means that for a given amount of heat input naphtha will produce more vapor than water would produce for the same amount of heat input — From the Gas Engine Magazine Website
