Assessment of diesel fuel quality [PDF]
Diesel is an essential energy source in the transportation and industrial sectors worldwide; hence, the quality of this commodity is crucial. This study compares various fuel samples to understand the quality of the fuels in terms of sulphur content, density, surface tension, viscosity, and calorific value.
