Lubricity of Canadian Diesel Fuels
This is the final report from a multi-year project at Canada’s National Research Council, partially sponsored by the Canadian Fuels Association to evaluate the use of renewable diesel blends under Canadian conditions. A number of papers were presented regarding the project at the 2015 and 2019 International Association for the Stability, Handling and Use of Liquid Fuels (IASH) conferences. During the studies regarding lubricity, deficiencies with the industry standard (HFRR) test method were identified and this report summarizes the work done to investigate these deficiencies.
