Abstract

With increasing concern on the dwindling of the fossil fuel reserve and climate change, more and more effort has been focused on seeking green fuel to replace fossil fuel and mitigating the emissions of greenhouse gas (GHG). Biodiesel has attracted much attention for its sustainability, lower emissions of HC, PM and CO, and the diverse feedstock.

In this study, diesel/diesel-like fuels were experimentally studied in terms of spray and combustion characteristics.
