A phenomenological soot model of real biodiesel was proposed to investigate the effects of
initial ambient temperatures on combustion and soot emission characteristics of soybean …

Biodiesel is a type of particularly attractive alternative fuel for diesel engines. Many studies
have investigated the combustion and emissions as fueling biodiesel on diesel engines and …

The combustion characteristics and soot distributions of neat butanol and neat soybean
biodiesel were explored in an optical constant-volume combustion chamber using natural …

To understand soot formation in a diesel engine fueled with different biodiesels, a numerical
study was performed using the KIVA-3V code, combined with a multi-step …

In this study, a semi-empirical two-equation soot model that can predict soot in petrodiesel
and biodiesel sprays and quantitative differences between soot volume fractions in the two …

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

Experimental and chemical kinetics studies were carried out to compare soot particle
morphology evolution in atmospheric pressure laminar co-flow diffusion flames of methyl …

Nowadays, the increasing consumption of conventional fuels has led to rising pollutant
emissions, among which soot has received much attention due to its harmful effects. In this …

To investigate the effects of oxygenated biofuels on soot formation, oxidation, and
distribution, a detailed comparative study using the forward illumination light extinction …

Alternative fuels will come from a variety of feed stocks and refinement processes.
Understanding the fundamentals of combustion and pollutants formation processes of these …
