The role of the unsaturation degree on the droplet combustion characteristics of fatty acid methyl ester

Biodiesel is composed of various types of methyl ester compounds with different concentrations. The role of unsaturation degree was observed through single-molecule droplet combustion from three fatty acid methyl ester compounds. This research was conducted under normal gravity at ambient temperatur...
