Ramkumar S

About

I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Automobile Engineering at Annapoorna Engineering College, Salem, Tamil Nadu, India. I hold a Master of Engineering degree and have research expertise in alternative fuels, homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) engines, exhaust gas recirculation, and IC engine performance and emission characteristics. My research focuses on the utilization of biodiesel, waste plastic oil, and bio-derived fuels in conventional CI and HCCI engines. I have published several research articles in reputed international journals including Fuel (Elsevier), Energy Conversion and Management (Elsevier), and Energy Sources Part A (Taylor & Francis). My work contributes significantly to the development of sustainable and eco-friendly alternative energy sources for internal combustion engines.
