They found that total particulate gravimetric mass collected over the engine test cycle was more than 2 times higher for B0 than for B20 fuel. Particle number distributions aggregated over one example drive cycle indicate a unimodal B0 distribution centered at 51 nm, but a B20 distribution with a smaller diameter mode at 32.2

The researchers analyzed samples of PM obtained from light-duty diesel engine transient cycle emission tests with two biodiesel feedstocks—soybean (SOY) and waste vegetable oil (WVO)—blended with ultralow sulfur petrodiesel at five different volume percentages of biodiesel, Bxx (B0, B10, B20, B50, and B100).

LADA XRAY, a hatchback SUV based on the B0 platform, was developed by AvtoVAZ stylists while its body was developed jointly by Renault and AvtoVAZ. LADA Vesta, based on a new Russian platform B/C and developed by AvtoVAZ engineers in collaboration with the Renault-Nissan Alliance, will be produced in Izhevsk, Russia starting fall 2015.

QuantumScape explained that the Alpha-2 prototype cells act as a bridge between the A0 and QSE-5 B0 prototypes Sivaram mentioned above. We are very encouraged by the initial Alpha-2 performance results and excited about the first QSE-5 cells we expect to manufacture later this year.

The authors tested JBD blended with FT fuel in volumetric ratios of 0:100, 25:75, 50:50, 75:25, and 100:0 (B0, B25, B50, B75, and B100). However, NO x emissions were higher, and the engine thermal efficiency was slightly lower with higher JBD blends. Compared to FT fuel, higher JBD blends showed higher BSFC and lower thermal efficiency.

The 33% v/v butanol-gasoline fuel was blended at the University of Birmingham using standard EN228 gasoline with 5% (v/v) ethanol content (B0) and pure n-butanol. They found that the influence of the butanol depended on engine load. At low loads, butanol’s physical properties (e.g. higher flame speed).

With each fuel at each operating location, the optimal ECM parameter settings resulted in the reduction of BSNO x , BSPM, and peak dP/dt to levels comparable to or lower than the corresponding nominal B0 levels. The ability to produce emission and noise decreases were subsequently leveraged to produce BSFC reductions.
