- •
A wide range of alternative fuels is studied in a small two-spool turbofan engine.
- •
Impact of fuel properties on flame temperature and droplet evaporation considered.
- •
Performance and pollutant emissions at different operating conditions are analyzed.
- •
Use of alternative fuels generally leads to an improved performance of the engine.
- •
Mostly reductions in soot emissions, but also cuts in NOx and CO, are obtained.
