Abstract :
A series of test are conducted to evaluate and compare the three different methyl ester of biofuels namely koroch, bhotora and mahua. The parameters like BTE, BSFC, CO, HC and smoke opacity are measured and analyzed. It is observed that B20K, B20B, B20M have comparable engine performance with less emission without any problem with existing diesel engines.
