Abstract
Biodiesel which is comprising of Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAMEs) or Fatty Acid Ethyl Esters (FAEEs) mixtures, has attracted tremendous attention as a potential renewable and biodegradable fuel in internal combustion engines, because of their beneficial effects on pollution emission and engine performance. In this work, the liquid thermal conductivity of two binary mixtures containing a diesel compound n-dodecane + biodiesel compounds: methyl caprate and ethyl caprate was measured by means of transient hot-wire method at the teamperature range between 292 K and 362 K at atmospheric pressure. Based on the experimental data of two binary mixtures, the correction about three useful correlations which are available to calculate the liquid thermal conductivity of mixtures have been conducted.
