dc.description.abstractOver the past years many researchers have been carrying out studies regarding the use of renewable fuels for internal combustion engines due the environmental and economic aspects. These studies have been conducted mainly applying biodiesel from vegetable oil or animal sources in compression engines. On the other hand, biodiesel can also be used as fuel for gas turbine despite scarce amount of work exists on the literature about this theme. This work reports results of a micro gas turbine running on biodiesel from vegetable source, blends of biodiesel-diesel (B50, B70 and B100) and compare such results with natural gas as fuel. The micro gas turbine was originally designed to operate with natural gas.en_US
