Rice bran oil as emerging green fuels: Exploration on combustion behaviours of single cylinder diesel engine (light-duty engine)

In the current work, an experiment was conducted to examine the combustion properties of a single cylinder compression ignition direct ignition engine fuelled with rice bran oil at different engine loads. The investigation focused on the analysis of cylinder pressure and exhaust gas temperature as k...
