Abstract: The objective of the study is to determine biodiesel from the seed of Pongamia pinnata (L) pierre (Koroch) and determine the properties of the biodiesel and blending of the biodiesel with the diesel at different percentage of the biodiesel. The properties of the biodiesel and the blending of the biodiesel with the diesel are compared with those of diesel fuels and also with biodiesel standards such as ASTM D6751 and EN 14214. The biodiesel and blending of biodiesel with diesel is tested in the four stroke single cylinder compression ignition engine and the performance of the engine is studied, exergy of the engine is analyzed and exhaust gas parameters also studied.
