Exhaust Temperature Analysis of Biodiesel Fuels Using MATLAB

The primary goal of the engineering curriculum is to provide the student with necessary skills to perform effective problem solving.Another goal is to teach undergraduate & graduate students how to transition from textbook problems to realistic engineering problems and processes.Students in the Industrial Engineering Department at Morgan State University, participate in ongoing projects at the laboratories of Center for Advanced Energy Systems & Environmental Control Technologies (CAESECT).The biodiesel experiments were designed to study combustion of B50 and B100 fuels using different air/fuel ratio.Students monitor exhaust temperatures of combustion gases and analyze them using MATLAB and statistical method.
