Publisher's Synopsis
Basically, internal combustion engines are designed to operate under conventional fossil fuels such as: Gasoline, Diesel, LPG, CNG, etc. However, owing to rapid depletion, escalating prices and environmental pollution, researchers around the globe have experimentally proved that non-conventional alternative and renewable energy sources could be utilized to operate these engines without any major changes in them. The book deals with Liquid Fuels for Internal Combustion Engines with biodiesel, Natural Gas, Synthetic Fuel, Alternative Fuel, Butanol, etc. One of the aims constantly kept in mind while arranging the various chapters is to give a logical sequence. The material is presented in simple language. The book will be a ready for students, academicians, researchers and mechanical engineers.
