    • Abstract The fast diminution of readily extractable sources of fossil fuels, particularly oil, and concerns about global warming are leading to the creation of many new potential fuels. Their practicability must be assessed in terms of a wide range of physico-chemical properties, in relation to the operational aerodynamics in different engines. This article concentrates on those properties related to combustion and these are discussed in detail for some fuels with contrasting properties… CONTINUE READING
