Abstract: The proposed development relates to heat power engineering and can be used in energy, petrochemical and food engineering. It can be used in the engine industry and in particular in lubrication, cooling and fuel supply systems of Internal Combustion Engines (ICE) in the regulation and maintenance of optimal temperature conditions. The aim of the study is to develop and study the system of heating biodiesel used in diesel generator sets in order to ensure its high technical and economic performance. The study presents a mathematical model of the working processes of the engine running on different types of fuel. The method of experimental studies on the study of thermophysical parameters of fuels and to assess their impact on the efficiency of the internal combustion engine in the course of motor tests. The results of laboratory studies of thermal and physical parameters of fuels and obtaining quantitative dependences describing the change of these parameters on temperature are carried out and described; the results of motor tests of diesel generator sets under load characteristics to study the effect of different fuels and fuel temperatures on the effective performance of diesel; as well as research and development of the design of the fuel heater with a changing surface area of heating. The economic efficiency of application of biofuels and fuel heater in the diesel generator set is proved.
