Abstract

In this paper, a novel biodiesel named curcas oil diethylene glycol ether esters was experimental studied on engine combustion characteristics, this biodisel and its mixed fuel were respectively tested through engine test and physicochemical properties bench. The results showed that curcas oil diethylene glycol ether esters had good physical and chemical properties; compared with diesel, the overall trend of the engine pressure dynamometer did not change significantly at the conditions of the same speed and loads, and its pressure rise rate and heat release rate both had a distinctive features of curved forward and peak reduction. Effective thermal efficiency increased with the content of biodiesel in blended fuel. This indicates that the novel biodiesel had a higher oxygen content and cetane number, therefore it owned excellent ignition performance, and can replace diesel as alone fuel.
