THE STUDY OF AUTO-IGNITION AND COMBUSTION QUALITIES OF RAPESEED OIL AND DIESEL FUEL MIXTURES
Abstract
The fuel for diesel engines must meet several goals: to ensure a safe and fast engine start at any environmental temperature, to allow a safe operation of the engine with a yield as high as possible, to burn completely without producing harmful substances for human health, not to act in a corrosive way on the metals, to allow the transport, storage and distribution to the customer without difficulties, while maintaining the properties. In this sense, the purpose of the experimental research has been to determine the combustion characteristics of the experimented fuels (cetane number, ignition delay, the start of the main combustion, the combustion period, the maximum positioning of the speed of released heat).The papers published in the journal are licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International License, which permits unrestricted, non-commercial use, distribution and reproduction in any medium, provided the work is properly cited.
