Thanks for the explaination. That's the best analysis I've seen to explain what I know from experience with kerosene. A pool of kerosene will not even burn except for the momentary flash that was mentioned in the article. Again as the article noted, you have to have an appropriate supply of oxygen. Too much air or fuel vapor and it just won't burn, much less explode.

It is common practice to add gasoline to jet fuel. Much more volatile when that is done.
