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

Recent increases in petroleum fuel costs, corporate average fuel economy (CAFE)
regulations, and environmental concerns about CO 2 emissions from petroleum based fuels …

Spray analysis is used to characterize the fuel spray evolution and spray shape, which
affects in-cylinder combustion and particulate emission characteristics of compression …

The authors studied the effect of injection pressure on nonevaporating spray and spray
flame characteristics of biodiesel fuel injected by a common rail injection system in a …

Biodiesel fuels are widely known to yield an increase in NOx emissions in many diesel
engines. It has been suggested that the increase in NOx is due to injection timing differences …

In this study, we produced pure biodiesel and analyzed its properties. Also, pure biodiesel
was blended with conventional diesel fuel in volumetric mixing rates of 5%, 20%, and 35 …

The use of biodiesel is rapidly expanding around the world, making it imperative to fully
understand the impacts of biodiesel on the diesel combustion process, pollutant formation …

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 …

In this study, the spray and combustion phenomena of biodiesels were investigated in a
constant volume combustion chamber (CVCC). Mineral diesel was used as a baseline fuel …

It is generally accepted that emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx) increase as the volume
fraction of biodiesel increases in blends with conventional diesel fuel. While many …
