Abstract

The objective of this article deals with the flow behavior of bio-ethanol, conventional petrol and their blends (E15, E85). The temperature dependence density and kinematic viscosity of the liquids have been measured. The densitometer Densito 30PX with the scale for measuring fuels has been used to the measuring temperature dependence of the density of fuels and their blends. The rotary viscometer Anton Paar DV-3P has been used to the measuring temperature dependence of kinematic viscosity of fuels and their blends. For all samples has determined that the temperature has increased the density and kinematic viscosity of fuels and their blends has decreased. The range of temperature measurement has been from −10°C to 40°C. The mathematic models have been compiled (polynomial and exponential) according to the general shapes. The coefficients of determination R2 have achieved high values from 0.98 to 0.99 for temperature dependence of density of fuels and their blends and from 0.86 to 0.96 for temperature dependence of kinematic viscosity of fuels and their blends. The mathematical models could be used to the prediction flow behavior of petrol, bio-ethanol and their blends.
