An experimental study was performed to compare the characteristics of the combustion pressure and exhaust emissions in the case of using pure diesel when the EGR rate was changed in a CRDI 4-cylinder diesel engine with those using biodiesel blended and pure diesel fuel. In this study, the EGR rate variation were conducted at an engine speed of 2000rpm with fuel with a biodiesel blended rate of 20%. The combustion pressure of the biodiesel blended rate 20% and pure diesel fuels decreased with increasing EGR rate. The IMEP of biodiesel was higher than that of ULSD (Ultra low sulfur diesel). The emission results showed that the NOx emission of biodiesel blended fuel with increasing EGR rate was higher than that of ULSD. In addition, the NOx emission of biodiesel blended and diesel fuel decreased with increasing EGR rate. The CO and soot, $CO_2$ emissions increased with increasing EGR rate, and the CO and soot emissions from the biodiesel blended fuel were lower than that of ULSD but the $CO_2$ emissions were higher.

대두유로부터 생산된 바이오디젤과 바이오디젤 혼합 연료유를 대상으로 지방산메틸에스터 함량과 화학적 분석을 통해 산화 특성과 오일의 수명 예측 연구를 수행하였다. 바이오디젤, 경유, BD5, BD20은 산화가 진행될수록 산가(Acid number), 동점도(Kinematic Viscosity) 및 밀도(Density)는 증가하였다. 산가 측정결과의 활용에 의해 임의의 온도조건에서 정확한 사용수명을 예측하기 위하여 화학속도론에 의거하여 각각의 연료에 대한 사용수명식을 도출하였다. 도출된 사용수명식으로부터 바이오디젤이 가장 빠르게 산화가 진행되었고 바이오디젤 혼합량이 증가할수록 사용수명이 단축되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

We have a lot of interest in alternative fuels to provide energy independence from oil producing country and to reduce exhaust emissions for air pollution prevention. Biodiesel, which can be generated from natural renewable sources such as new or used vegetable oils or animal fats, may be used as fuel without change of engine structure in diesel engine of compression ignition engine. In this paper, the test results on specific fuel consumption and exhaust emissions of neat diesel oil and biodiesel blends(10 vol.% biodiesel and 20 vol.% biodiesel) were presented using four stroke, direct injection diesel engine. Especially this biodisel was produced from rape oil at our laboratory by ourselves. This study showed that specific fuel consumption and NOx emission were slightly increased, on the other hand CO emission and Soot were tolerably decreased more in the case of biodiesel blends than neat diesel oil.

An experimental study was performed in order to compare with the case of using pure diesel the characteristics of combustion pressure and exhaust emissions when the engine speed was changed in a CRDI 4-cylinder diesel engine using biodiesel( Canola oil) blended and pure diesel fuel. As a results, the combustion pressure was decreased with increasing biodiesel blended rate when engine speed was 1,000, 1,500, 2000(rpm). but the combustion pressure of the engine speed 2,500rpm was increased with increasing biodiesel blended rate. The emission results show, that CO was decreased with increasing biodiesel blended rate and engine speed. The emission of $CO_2$, NOx, were increased with increasing biodiesel blended rate and engine speed.

Biodiesel is manufactured from vegetable oils, etc. in reaction with methanol so that the product of biodiesel may be dangerous due to the methanol remained of it. The risks of methanol remained in biodiesel were studied by measuring flash points and dynamic viscosity to some samples of biodiesel by adding methanol to a certain percentage of. The results of flash points of biodiesel are decreased in accordance with increasing of methanol in biodiesel and also decreasing the dynamic viscosity. It was shown that the risks of explosion of biodiesel are significantly high due to lower flash points resulted from methanol remained in biodiesel fuel as a reactant or adding to biodiesel for reduction of viscosity.

The substitution of fossil fuels with biofuels has been proposed by the European Union (EU) as part of a strategy to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions from road transport, increase security of energy supply and support the development of rural communities. Vegetable oils and their derivatives (especially methyl esters), commonly referred to as 'biodiesel', are prominent candidates as alternative diesel fuels. They have advanced from being purely experimental fuels to the initial stages of commercialization. They are technically competitive with or offer technical advantages compared to conventional diesel fuel. However, several problems remain including economics, combustions, some emissions, lube oil contamination, and low-temperature properties. Therefore, quality control of fuel-related properties of biodiesel is needed to obtain consistent engine performance by fuel users. The quality of the fuel is affected by the oil composition. Rapeseed oil has been targeted for fuel use because it produces an oil with a close-to-optimum set of fuel characteristics. In this paper we have reviewed past and current efforts, both by traditional seed-breeding methods and by genetic engineering, to modify rapeseed oil quality and yield.

The using of diesel engine will be increased in the world for fuel economy. But diesel engine emits harmful emissions such as much NOx, smoke etc. In this study, experiments were performed to investigate the spray characteristics of diesel spray in a common-rail system according to fuel temperature, injection pressure, injection period and fuel viscosity etc. using a high speed video camera. Diesel oil has different spray patten due to injection pressure and injection period in a common-rail system. A Filter pressure was influenced by fuel temperature which was turned to fuel viscosity related to a fluid flowing. The effect of the bio-diesel fuel mixing ratio on the spray and atomization characteristics was also investigated at various experimental conditions. It shows that the droplet atomization characteristics of bio-diesel fuel showed deteriorated results as the mixing ratio of biodiesel increased because of the high viscosity.
