Abstract

The ignition qualities of LPG with liquid hydrocarbons and a cetane improver were investigated. As a result, the cetane improver improved the ignition qualities of LPG fuels with liquid hydrocarbons more effectively than that of LPG alone. Also, LPG with 30wt% of some liquid hydrocarbons and 1wt% of a cetane improver showed an equivalent ignition quality to that of commercial diesel fuel.
