Abstract
Increasing petroleum prices, depletion of fossil fuels
and pollution are leading to find out alternative sources for
petroleum fuels. Among the biodiesel, natural gas, electric
batteries and hydrogen gas, biodiesel getting worldwide attention
due to renewable and environmentally friendly nature and also it
does not required modifications in diesel engine. The present
work confers the study of impact on diesel engine performance
characteristics when engine is fuelled with biodiesel produced
from Calophyllum oil and the engine is at low temperature and
at idling condition. In the present work engine is run on neat
diesel, emulsified diesel and emulsified biodiesel B10, under the
engine load conditions of 0 kg load, 5kg load, 10 kg load, and 15
kg load.
