Combustion Performance and Emission Characteristics of Marine Engine Burning with Different Biodiesel

Ning Yang et al.

Summary: Ship emissions are a major source of air pollution in port cities, affecting air quality and public health. The use of experimental biodiesel fuels has been studied to investigate their impact on engine performance and exhaust emissions. It was found that biodiesel has little influence on combustion performance but affects exhaust emissions. Biodiesel's higher octane number and laminar flame speed shorten the combustion time of the diesel engine. While biodiesel use leads to an increase in particle numbers, it does not affect particle size distribution.
