Prabhu, C.; Rajasekar, V.; Prakash, T. published the artcile< Characterisation and assessment of physicochemical properties of grapeseed methyl ester using predictive correlations and ASTM standards for CI engine application>, Electric Literature of 112-63-0, the main research area is grape seed methyl ester physicochem property CI engine application.
In the present work, a detailed investigation of the physio-chem. characteristics of grapeseed Me ester (GSME) obtained from winery biomass waste has been carried out to evaluate its suitability as an energy alternate, for CI engines. GSME was subjected to Gas chromatog. and mass spectrometry anal. from which fatty acids compositions were determined followed by other interpretations such as carbon number, number of double bonds, etc. Two different predictive correlations were identified from the literature for predicting the properties that are considered important, for using GSME as a fuel. The predicted properties of GSME are compared with the exptl. results obtained through standard ASTM procedures, for diesel, neat grapeseed oil (GSO) and GSME, resp. Further, the influence of the structural and compositional characteristics of GSME on the physicochem. properties like d., kinematic viscosity, lower calorific value, etc. has been evaluated and found to be closer to diesel.
