The investigations of the test engine A have been performed within the scope of the FVVVorhaben Nr. 942, „Alternative Kraftstoffe DIOttomotoren – Untersuchung und Bewertung von alternativen Kraftstoffen für den Einsatz in modernen DI-Ottomotoren“. The investigations with test engine B have been conducted as part of the Cluster of Excellence „Tailor- Made Fuels from Biomass“, which is funded by the Excellence Initiative by the German federal and state governments to promote science and research at German universities. The Diesel engine investigations have been undertaken in the BEAUTY (Bio-Ethanol engine for Advanced Urban Transport by Light Commercial & Heavy-Duty Captive Fleets) project, funded by the EU within the „Seventh framework programme”.
