Characterization of diesel engine with palm oil at different compression ratio

The performance, emission and combustion characteristics of a single cylinder four stroke direct injection air cooling various compression ratio multi fuel engine when fueled with palm oil methyl ester and its 2%, 5%, 7% and 10% blends with diesel (on a volume basis) are investigated and compared wi...
