Journal ArticleDOI
Performance and emission characteristics of biodiesel from different origins: A review
TL;DR: In this paper, the performance and emission of biodiesel from different feedstock was analyzed and the results of the study showed that different chemical compositions of different biodiesel based upon their origin lead to variation in their properties and performance and emissions characteristics.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effects of the fuel injection pressure on the performance and emission characteristics of a diesel engine fuelled with waste cooking oil biodiesel-diesel blends
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of fuel injection pressure on the performance and emission characteristics of a diesel engine fuelled with waste cooking oil biodiesel (WCOB) and its 5-30% (v/v) blends with diesel fuel were investigated and compared with diesel.
Journal ArticleDOI
The performance, emissions, and combustion characteristics of an unmodified diesel engine running on the ternary blends of pentanol/safflower oil biodiesel/diesel fuel
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of binary and ternary blends of diesel and biodiesel on performance, emission and combustion characteristics of a diesel power generator was analyzed on a single-cylinder, four-stroke, naturally aspirated, and direct-injection diesel engine at four engine loads with a constant engine speed of 3000 rpm.
Journal ArticleDOI
Feasibility of using less viscous and lower cetane (LVLC) fuels in a diesel engine: A review
TL;DR: In this paper, a review work focused on bio-fuels with lower viscosity and cetane number and their mode of operation in a diesel engine is presented and detailed summary on operation of these fuels in the reported three different modes is clearly explained and their engine characteristics such as performance, combustion and emission are briefed.
