We are delighted to announce that our e-cuber Mohammadjavad Jafari Mahmoudabadi has recently defended his doctoral dissertation: Experimental study of neat Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO) as an alternative fuel in light duty internal combustion engines. This research activity demonstrated that neat Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO) is one of the most viable alternatives to conventional diesel fuel in light-duty internal combustion engines for the current fleet. It further elucidates the benefits of HVO in significantly reducing almost all criteria pollutant emissions as well as GHG emissions, showing more than 85% abatement in equivalent CO2 emissions on a WTW basis, with comparable fuel economy and no need for any further engine re-calibration. The comprehensive experimental investigations provided valuable insights into the fuel’s hydraulic behavior, spray characteristics, combustion dynamics, cold/hot and steady-state/transient operation, and overall engine performance, underscoring the potential of HVO as a drop-in fuel to support the transition to more sustainable solutions in the transportation sector.
