Clip: How bubbles form in a drop of biodiesel (VIDEO)

University of Gothenburg

Caption

The film shows in slow motion how bubbles form inside a drop of biodiesel when it is exposed to repeated laser pulses that add energy. The process is documented with a high-speed camera. By studying how bubbles form in a drop of biodiesel, researchers at the University of Gothenburg can help future engines get the most energy out of the biofuel.
