Investigation on Combustion Parameters of Palm Biodiesel Operating with a Diesel Engine

Investigation on Combustion Parameters of Palm Biodiesel Operating with a Diesel Engine

Biodiesel is a renewable and decomposable fuel which is derived from edible and non-edible oils. It has different properties compared to conventional diesel but can be used directly in diesel engines. Different fuel properties characterise different combustion-phasing parameters such as cyclic va...
