In the present work, the combustion, performance and emission characteristics of sunflower oil, sunflower methyl ester and its blends were studied and compared with diesel by employing them as fuel in a single cylinder, direct injection, 4.4 KW, air cooled diesel engine. Emission measurements were carried out using five-gas exhaust gas analyzer and smoke meter. The performance characteristics of Sunflower oil, Sunflower methyl ester and its blends were comparable with those of diesel. The components of exhaust such as HC, CO, NOx and soot concentration of the fuels were measured and presented as a function of load and it was observed that the blends had similar performance and emission characteristics as those of diesel. NOx emissions of sunflower oil methyl ester were slightly higher than that of diesel but that of sunflower oil was slightly lower than that of diesel. With respect to the combustion characteristics it was found that the biofuels have lower ignition delay than diesel. The heat release rate was very high for diesel than for the biofuel.

The paper presents an experimental investigation, to evaluate the performance and emission characteristics of a direct injection diesel engine using diesel-ethanol blends with aqueous cerium oxide nano fluid (ACN) as additive at different load conditions. The test fuel (D85E15ACN) prepared using ultrasonic sonicator, contains diesel 85%, ethanol 15% (D85+E15) by volume, with 1ml of aqueous cerium oxide nanofluid (ACN) added with the blend. The results show that, when the engine is run with D85E15ACN, there is an increase in brake thermal efficiency and reduction in hydrocarbon (HC), carbon monoxide (CO) and smoke emissions, compared to that of neat diesel.However, nitric oxide (NO) emission are more for D85E15ACN.
