Vegetable oils are green promising alternative fuels for diesel engines such as jatropha oil. When they are used in diesel engines, higher viscosity and lower volatility of vegetable oils causes problems in spray penetration, atomization and mixture formation. Blends of biodiesel and diesel oil by volume (B5, B20, B40, B70 and B100) are burned. We produced biodiesel with standard chemical and physical properties. A new biodiesel engine should be designed to burn biodiesel blends up to B100 according to biodiesel thermodynamic cycle is needed. Conventional diesel engines are not suitable to...

One of the major areas of development in I.C.E is the development of computer simulations of various types of engines. Their economic value is in the reduction in time and costs for the development of new engines. Computer simulations of I.C.E cycles are desirable because of the aid they provide in design studies, predicting trends, serving as diagnostic tools, giving more data than are normally obtainable from experiments, and helping to understand the complex process that occur in the combustion chamber. Predictive computer models of engine processes are valuable tools for analyzing engine...
