Effect of EGR on a sationary VCR diesel engine using cottonseed biodiesel (B20) fuel
This paper presents a view on comparative study of use of diesel fuel with B20 biodieselblend (Diesel (80 %, by vol.) and Cotton seed oil (20 %, by vol.)) derived from Cotton seeds. As higher NOx emission and higher brake specific fuel consumption are main challenges for effective utilization of bi...
