Abstract
The purpose of the one-dimensional numerical simulations done at FTZ (Forschung—und Transferenz Zentrum Zwickau) was to observe the influence of alternative fuels produced from wood biomass on engine energetic parameters like: pressure evolution in combustion chamber, rate of heat release, temperature distribution. The fuels used were represented by blends with 20, 50 and 100 % biomass biodiesel made by the Fischer–Tropsch synthesis. Based on the limitations of one-dimensional simulations, the study included 3D simulations (AVL FIRE) which have correctly estimated the complex phenomena related to diesel fuel injection and combustion.
