Few factors affect diesel combustion and emissions more significantly than the composition of the fuel and the fuel injection process. In this paper, both of these factors are considered by comparing conventional, synthetic and vegetable oil-derived diesel fuels and by comparing a single pulse injection and a split (pilot and main) injection process. This paper focuses on characterization of the combustion...
The present work focuses on an experimental comparison of diesel emissions produced by three fuels: an ultra low sulfur diesel fuel (BP15), a pure soybean methyl-ester biodiesel fuel (B100), and a synthetic Fischer–Tropsch fuel (FT), practically free of sulfur and aromatic compounds, and produced in a gas-to-liquid process. The study was carried out using a 2.5L direct injection common-rail turbodiesel...
A motored engine study using premixed charges of fuel and air at a wide range of diesel-relevant equivalence ratios was performed to investigate autoignition differences among surrogates for conventional diesel fuel, gas-to-liquid (GTL) diesel fuel, and biodiesel, as well as, n-heptane. Experiments were performed by delivering a premixed charge of vaporized fuel and air and increasing the compression...
