The Effect of Nanoparticle Additives on the Lubricity of Diesel and Biodiesel Fuels
Fuel lubricity is an essential property that ensures the longevity end efficiency of diesel CI engines. Nanomaterials have been shown to have the potential to improve lubricity in many different lubricating substances, including fuels.

Effect of fatty acid composition of methyl and ethyl esters on the lubricity at different humidities [PDF]
Lubricity of individual fatty acid methyl or ethyl esters and biodiesel fuels has been measured using a high frequency reciprocating rig (HFRR). Tests have been carried out varying the ambient humidity to assess the effect of this parameter on the ...

In this paper, two kinds of different biodiesel were tested in terms of their impact on wear resistance of Si‐DLC coated 100Cr6 flat worn by an oscillating 100Cr6 ball. The knowledge about the tribological behaviour of different types of biodiesel is rare. Rape and soybean are two of the most common natural sources for biodiesel production.

In 2012, a new specification for synthetic fuels containing up to 7% biodiesel (FAME) was approved (CEN TS 15940). This specification allows the sale of neat paraffinic diesel, such as Gas‐to‐Liquids (GTL) diesel, to captive fleets in Europe. Several aspects are important in the final end‐use application, including the stability of the fuel.

The Impact of Fatty Acid Diisopropanolamides on Marine Gas Oil Lubricity
In this study, seven mixtures of diisopropanolamides that were synthesized from various vegetable oils (sunflower oil, soybean oil, cotton seed oil, olive oil, tobacco seed oil, coconut oil, used frying oil) were used as lubricating additives in a low ...

Сhanging the lubricity of diesel fuel with vegetable oil additive
Intriduction. The environmental safety of cars with a diesel engine does not lose its relevance. In the conditions of stricter requirements for diesel fuel, the content of many substances harmful to the environment, including sulfur, is not allowed.

Effect of Acute Mental Stress on Heart Rate and QT Variability in Postmyocardial Infarction Patients
Emotionally charged events are associated with an increased risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD). In this study we assessed RR and QT variability index (QTVI) at baseline during anger recall test (AR). We calculated QTVI from a 5‐min ECG recording and from a 10‐beats segment around the presumed maximum sympathetic activation in thirty post‐myocardial ...
