Abstract |
|
Being renewable in source of energy the vegetables oils can be use as fuel for CI engine. However, poor volatility and high viscosity lead to increased emissions and reduced performance. Hence the properties of vegetable oils need to be modified. The most commonly used method for this modification is converting into biodiesel by transesterification process and blending with diesel are considered in this work. The scope of present work includes, characterization of Rapeseed oil, examining the suitability of this oil as fuel by evaluating performance, combution and emission characteristics and comparing the same with that of diesel. |
