Effects of diesel engine speed and water content on emission characteristics of three-phase emulsions.

TL;DR: It is suggested that the emulsions with water content larger than 20% are not suitable for use as alternative fuel for diesel engines because they may cause diesel engines to shut down earlier than those running on O/W/O emulsion with the same water content.

Exergy costing analysis and performance evaluation of selected gas turbine power plants

TL;DR: In this paper, exergy analysis and performance evaluation of selected gas turbine power plants in Nigeria are carried out, and it was found that the combustion chamber is the most exergy destructive component compared to other cycle components.

Performance and emission characteristics of a diesel engine fueled by rapeseed oil bio-fuel

TL;DR: In this article, straight vegetable oil (SVO) particularly neat rapeseed oil as a fuel in a direct injection diesel engine was used to evaluate combustion performance and exhaust emissions of using the fuel have been measured from no load up to full load engine condition.
