Abstract

With an increasing emphasis on the need to conserve energy and, more particularly, that derived from oil, alternative sources of fuel are being considered for all forms of prime mover. The diesel engine offers, currently, the most efficient means of converting hydrocarbon fuel into mechanical energy, and can play a significant part in energy conservation by its wider application in the automotive field. However, with limited known oil resources and the problem of excessive demand for the barrel of crude oil, resulting from such an expansion, there is clearly an interest in the use of alternative fuels in automotive diesel engines.
