Biodiesel Addition to Standard Diesel Fuels and Marine Fuels Used in a Diesel…

This paper presents comparative energy and exergy analyses of a No. 2 diesel fuel, marine fuel, and four various biodiesel fuels for a four-cylinder, four-stroke, direct-injection diesel engine. The engine was used to obtain the experimental data at full-load conditions for constant 1600 rpm speed. It was found that the firstand second-law efficiencies increased with biodiesel addition and the…
