Calculation of the high heat value of biofuels

  • Published:
Chemistry and Technology of Fuels and Oils Aims and scope

Abstract

Unique experimental data on the high heat value of biofuels-soy and rapeseed oils and methyl esters of the latter-which are in good agreement with the data of domestic and foreign researchers confirm the results of calculations: high erucic oil and its derivatives have a higher energy potential than low erucic oil. These data allow determining the indicator and effective indexes of operation of diesel (multifuel) engines with a high degree of reliability.
