Analysis: Impulse Detonation Biodiesel Combustor

 

 

The vegetable oil, as a biofuel, may be used

in vegetable oil fuel combustors integrated in portable bioenergy

technologies for home-heating, in large scale bioenergy steam

generators, and even used directly as auto-fuel. However, the viscosity

of vegetable oil is relatively higher than suitable for most combustion

operations. Biodiesel produced from vegetable oils tend to have much

lower viscosity and as such also better flow properties. Therefore, the

use of biodiesels in combustion technologies in substitution for pure

vegetable oils is preferable; and the development of combustion

technologies specifically for biodiesel also taking advantage of the

fluid and thermodynamic properties of the biodiesel is also preferable,

as is performed.
