N2 - The Waste cooking oil is popular source for biodiesel production and it can be developed as substitute to diesel. The aim of the present work is to evaluate the fuel properties and investigate the impact on engine performance using waste cooking biodiesel and its blend with diesel, kerosene and ethanol. The result of investigation show that cold flow properties of waste cooking biodiesel blend with ethanol and kerosene are much better than waste cooking biodiesel and its blends with diesel. The blends were also tested on diesel engine to evaluate the engine performance and the result shows that Brake Specific fuel consumption for waste cooking biodiesel blend with ethanol and kerosene are higher as compared to waste cooking biodiesel and it blends with diesel. This is due to lower calorific value for ethanol and kerosene. The brake thermal efficiency for waste cooking biodiesel blend with diesel is higher as compared to other blends of waste cooking biodiesel with ethanol and kerosene. The result shows that waste cooking biodiesel blend with ethanol and kerosene can be recommended for cold climatic conditions while WCB20 can be developed as an alternative to diesel.
