Abstract

The interaction between the bulk modulus of the compressibility of various fuels and their effect on fuel injection timing was studied. The fuels considered ranged from methyl soyate (the methyl ester of soybean oil), unrefined soybean oil, and paraffinic solvents to ultra low and conventional diesel fuels. The higher bulk modulus of compressibility of vegetable oils and their methyl esters led to advanced injection timing. An opposite trend was observed with paraffinic fuels, which led to a retarding of injection timing because they had a lower bulk modulus of compressibility than conventional diesel fuels and which supported the observation that paraffinic fuels, e.g., Fischer-Tropsch diesel fuels yield lower NO_x.
