Phase Diagram of Alcohol

Stationpedia

Alcohol is a relatively safe and versatile volatile liquid at room temperatures. When exposed to vacuum it will decompose into Methane to form a small head pressure.

Usage

Alcohol has the highest enthalpy of combustion per mol of all Fuels at 566 kJ/mol, but the high amounts of Steam generated as combustion byproducts limit its maximum achievable combustion temperature.
It is also relatively safe to be used in a Pressure-Fed Liquid Engine with Nitrous Oxide because it autoignites at 150°C.
However, it evaporates into Methane which autoignites at a lower temperature.

Combustion

• 1x + 3x = 8x + 2x + 564 kJ (Autoignites at 673.15 K (400.0 °C))
• 1x + 2x = 4x + 2x + 1130 kJ (Autoignites at 423.15 K (150.0 °C))
• 1x + 2x = 1x + 3x + 1130 kJ (Autoignites at 523.15 K (250.0 °C))

Sources

Alcohol can be obtained by fermenting Crops, Seeds, Biomass or Decayed Food in the Fermenter.
