Bio fuels have been used as an alternative fuel for fossil fuels. Currently, the bio fuels such as bio diesel and bio ethanol has been used for the fuel of the reciprocating engines. However, the using of bio fuels for gas turbine engines are not active yet. In this paper, we discuss the type of bio fuel and the adaptability of it for gas turbine engine. At first, we revealed the concentration dependence of viscosity of the mixed fuel of ethanol and bio-diesel fuel using a rotational viscometer. Then we investigated the performance of turbine engine which adopt the ethanol/diesel fuel mixture as fuel. As a result, ethanol/diesel fuel (mixture ratio 5:5) was close to the fuel JetA-1 which has been currently used, on the performance but there were many Particulate Matter in the exhaust gas.
