Abstract
Even though there is a broad literature in the field of review on production of biodiesels from edible and inedible vegetable oils, performance and exhaust emissions of CI engine fuelled with vegetable oil and its derivatives, spray characteristics is not considered in those reviews. In this article, therefore, spay characteristics in CI engines fuelled with vegetable oils and its derivatives will be reviewed. Of edible vegetable oils, soybean and rapeseed oils were mainly investigated. Of inedible vegetable oils, jatropha and used frying oils were main concern on the research on spray characteristics in CI engines. Spray angle and spray penetration were mainly examined among the macroscopic spray characteristics and Sauter mean diameter was only investigated among the microscopic spray characteristics.
