Abstract
Computational modeling was applied to evaluate strategies for reducing NOx emissions from biodiesel combustion. The results indicated that increasing spray cone angle, retarding start of injection, applying exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) and charge air cooling were all effective in reducing NOx emissions from biodiesel.
