This study investigates in-flame sooting characteristics of biodiesel surrogates in
compression-ignited spray flames. The aim of the study is to produce reliable experimental …

Quantitative measurements of combustion and in-flame soot in hydrotreated vegetable oil
(HVO), biodiesel (rapeseed methyl ester [RME]) and diesel fuel spray flames are presented …

Effects induced by the use of rapeseed methyl ester (RME) as additive or Diesel substitute
on the soot formation process have been studied in turbulent spray flames. Investigations …

In this study, the generation of soot from the combustion of biodiesels and their blend with
fossil diesel are investigated under laminar pool flame and prevaporised diffusion jet flame …

Previous studies have demonstrated that methyl ester-based biodiesels produce
significantly less soot compared to petroleum diesel in standard diffusion flames. However …

As the world's oil reserves are limited, and as a partial mitigation of greenhouse gas
emission, renewable biofuels are being considered as important contributors to the future …

Systematic investigations of the effects of fuel compositions on sooting tendencies were
performed in co-flow methane/air diffusion flames doped with different surrogate blends …

The sooting propensities of non-premixed flames of a class of model biodiesel fuels, namely
fatty acid esters, were studied systematically. Soot volume fractions were measured using …

Although biodiesel has begun to penetrate the fuel market, its effect on injection processes,
combustion and emission formation under diesel engine conditions remains somewhat …

In this work, diffused back-illumination extinction imaging and OH* chemiluminescence
imaging were employed simultaneously to measure the soot production, spray liquid length …
