Comparative analysis on performance and emission characteristic of diesel engine fueled with heated coconut oil and diesel fuel

Alternative fuel and renewable energy is becoming important issue due to unstable fuel supply and price. Recently, bio-fuels are much interested because of their beneficial effects on environment, agriculture and economic development. Raw vegetable oils – a kind of bio-fuels, even though it has many...
