dc.description.abstractIn this study energy balance and fuel properties of biodiesel has been calculated. Accordingly, the cost of 1 liter of oil is calculated 0.32 € after the income from the seed meal is deduced. Finally, the cost of per unit of biodiesel (1 liter) was calculated as 0.55 €, after deduction of the income provided by the sales of glycerin for use in soap and cosmetic industry. The energy equivalent of total output was calculated 147605.50 MJ per hectare. The net energy gain (refined oil) was found as 15105.63 MJ per hectare (The net energy ratio 11.031) according to yield and inputs values. The viscosity values of vegetable oils vary between 27.2 and 53.6 mm2/s whereas those of vegetable oil methyl esters between 3.59 and 4.63 mm2/s. The flash point values of vegetable oil methyl esters are highly lower than those of vegetable oils. The flash point values of vegetable oil methyl esters are highly lower than those of vegetable oils. An increase in density from 860 to 885 kg/m3 for vegetable oil methyl esters or biodiesel increases the viscosity from 3.59 to 4.63 mm2/s and the increases are highly regular. There is high regression between density and viscosity values vegetable oil methyl esters. The relationships between viscosity and flash point for vegetable oil methyl esters are irregular. An increase in density from 860 to 885 kg/m3 for vegetable oil methyl esters increases the flash point from 401 to 453 K and the increases are slightly regular. The LHV values of vegetable oils methyl ester vary between 35.74 and 39.16 MJ/kg. © 2008 by Nova Science Publishers, Inc. All rights reserved.en_US
