| Popis: | 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%. Therefore, a total seven kinds of fuels were tested for this study. Injection quantity was measured according to the blending rate. Spray penetration, distribution, and evaporation characteristics were also clarified through a spray visualization system. Furthermore, the combustion flame was investigated using a single cylinder optical engine and a high-speed camera to understand how evaporation characteristics affect the combustion flame. Moreover, exhaust emissions were measured with an exhaust emission analyzer and a smoke meter. According to the results of the injection test, there were few differences between the characteristics of diesel and biodiesel-blended fuel regarding the injection quantity and penetration length when the fuel temperature was maintained at 60 °C. Hence, there were not any problems such as additiona... |
