ISO 5165:2017 establishes the rating of diesel fuel oil in terms of an arbitrary scale of cetane numbers (CNs) using a standard single cylinder, four-stroke cycle, variable compression ratio, indirect injected diesel engine. The CN provides a measure of the ignition characteristics of diesel fuel oil in compression ignition engines. The CN is determined at constant speed in a p ## Source - https://isopublicstorageprod.blob.core.windows.net/opendata/_latest/iso_deliverables_metadata/csv/iso_deliverables_metadata.csv Last verified: 2026-08-05.
