Physical
Properties and Combustion Characteristics of Emulsion Fuels of Water/Diesel
Fuel and Water/Diesel Fuel/Vegetable Oil Prepared by Ultrasonication [in Japanese]

Abstract
Researchers
conducted ultrasonic preparation of two-phase water-in-oil (W/O) emulsion fuel
using an ultrasonic apparatus with a rod horn. They studied the effect of the
position of the horn tip emitting ultrasound into the sample mixture on
emulsion stability for water (10 vol%)/diesel fuel/surfactant (2 vol%)
mixtures.
They also examined the effects of ultrasonication time and vegetable
oil addition on viscosity, water droplet size and combustion characteristics of
the emulsion fuels prepared by ultrasonic treatment for water (5 vol%)/diesel
fuel/surfactant (2 vol%) and water (5 vol%)/diesel fuel/vegetable oil (5
vol%)/surfactant (2 vol%) mixtures. The stability of the emulsion fuel
significantly depended on the tip position of the ultrasonic horn immersed in
the mixture.
