Abstract The common rail direct injection diesel engine is an advanced combustion method to use alternative fuel with higher fuel economy and, reduce NOx and soot emissions. The present paper aims to investigate the influence of Schleichera oleosa oil (Kusum oil) on CRDI engine performance. This paper deals with the study on the influence of the Schleichera oleosa oil (Kusum oil) when added to diesel blend (B25, B50, B75, B100) on the emission, combustion and performance characteristics of a four stroke, single cylinder, common rail direct injection diesel engine working at a fixed speed and varying operating scenarios. The mixture of kusum oil blend and air is ignited by diesel through fuel injector into the combustion chamber at the end of compression stroke. It is noticed from the experimental results that, with an increase of kusum oil in the blends, ignition delay (ID) increases and start of combustion (SOC) is retarded. It is noticed that B100 shows the highest ID and low in-cylinder pressure; however, B50 shows the lowest ID compared to higher fractions of biodiesel blends. An increase in biodiesel proportion reduces NOx and smoke opacity but, HC and CO emissions increase compared to pure diesel mode engine. B25 shows the highest brake thermal efficiency (12%) compared to remaining biodiesel blends and baseline diesel engine. For finding optimum blend for lower BSFC, NOx, UHC and higher BTE Taguchi method is considered. Then Fuzzy rule is considered for two inputs parameters (load and fuel blend) and single output variable (MPCI). By considering multi-objective optimization technique, it is found that B25 blend has optimal MPCI value (0.68) which makes it best blend for enhancing the performance and lowering the emissions.

Diesel engines are widely used in industry, automotive, power generation due to better reliability and higher efficiency. However, diesel engines produce high smoke emissions. The main problem of diesel engine is actually the use of fossil fuels as a source of energy whose availability is diminishing. Therefore alternative fuels for diesel fuels such as jatropha and butanol are needed to reduce dependence on fossil fuels. In this study, the effect of butanol usage on fuel consumption and smoke emissions of direct injection diesel engine fueled by jatropha oil and diesel fuel with cold EGR system was investigated. The percentage of butanol was in the range of 5 to 15%, jatropha oil was in the range of 10 to 30% and the balance was diesel fuel. Cold EGR was varied through valve openings from 0 to 100% with 25% intervals. The experimental data shows that the BSFC value increases with increasing percentage of butanol. In addition, the use of EGR results in a higher increase of BSFC than that without EGR. While the addition of butanol into a blend of jatropha oil and diesel fuel causes a decrease in smoke emissions. The results also informed that the use of EGR in the same fuel blend led to increased smoke emissions.

Abstract Emission from the DI diesel engine is series setback for environment viewpoint. Intended for that investigates for alternative biofuel is persuaded. The important hitches with the utilization of biofuels and their blends in DI diesel engines are higher emanations and inferior brake-thermal efficiency as associated to sole diesel fuel. In this effort, Cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL) biodiesel, hydrogen and ethanol (BHE) mixtures remained verified in a direct-injection diesel engine with single cylinder to examine the performance and discharge features of the engine. The ethanol remained supplemented 5%, 10% and 15% correspondingly through enhanced CNSL as well as hydrogen functioned twin fuel engine. The experiments done in a direct injection diesel engine with single-cylinder at steadystate conditions above the persistent RPM (1500RPM). Throughout the experiment, emissions of pollutants such as fuel consumption rate (SFC), hydrocarbons (HC), carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NOx) and pressure of the fuel were also measured. cylinders. The experimental results show that, compared to diesel fuel, the braking heat of the biodiesel mixture is reduced by 26.79-24% and the BSFC diminutions with growing addition of ethanol from the CNSL hydrogen mixture. The BTE upsurges thru a rise in ethanol proportion with CNSL hydrogen mixtures. Finally, the optimum combination of ethanol with CNSL hydrogen blends led to the reduced levels of HC and CO emissions with trivial upsurge in exhaust gas temperature and NOx emissions. This paper reconnoiters the routine of artificial neural networks (ANN) to envisage recital, ignition and discharges effect.
