Bioethanol is ethanol made from plants such as cassava, sugarcane, sago, which are processed through hydrolysis, fermentation, distillation and dehydration processes. Lampung Province is one of the largest producers of cassava in Indonesia, with the total productivity of 5,451,312 tons in 2017, and 6,683,758 tons in 2018 or there was an increase of 22,61% compared to 2017. From this data, it is possible to produce bioethanol, where every 1 kg of cassava can produce 0,106 liters of bioethanol. This is what underlies this research to investigate the effect of blending bioethanol of 99% with pertamax and bioethanol on the engine torque. Blending bioethanol of 99% can homogeusly mix. The engine used in this study is a Kohler gasoline engine equipped with a VDAS (Versatile Data Accession System) instrument unit in determining the parameters of engine performance. The blending of bioethanol of 99% as big as 14% (E14) gave the highest value of torque at 1 rotation of dynamometer valve opening and engine speed of 2000 rpm.

Power reduction when converting a gasoline engine to propane can be mitigated by designing an injection system so the heat required for evaporation of the propane is drawn from the intake air. Air is cooled and densified, resulting in volumetric efficiency increase. LPG sprays were imaged using Mie and LIF imaging techniques from a port fuel injector, and from long and short connecting pipes. Images were taken in an optically-accessed pressure chamber at atmospheric pressure and fuel pressures of 1.5 MPa. Images of the pipe-coupled injection spray show significant evaporation in the pipe, whose amount depend on the length and diameter of the pipe. The duration of the LPG pulse at the manifold end is, for 300mm pipes, five times the original duration at the injector, and even greater for 600mm pipes. The narrow sprays and the amount of evaporation that occurs before the fuel enters the manifold explains the differences in engine torque and in-cylinder mixture temperature with the different systems.

The depletion of fossil fuels, rising of earth temperatures and declining of air quality are an unavoidable phenomenon today. Bioethanol fuel is one solution to reduce this problem that comes from renewable raw materials. The purpose of this study is to investigate engine performance and exhaust emissions at gasoline engine by using the sorghum seeds bioethanol-pertalite blends with different mixed ratios (10%, 15%, and 20%). The test is performed on a four-stroke gasoline engine without modification. Engine speeds vary from 1000 to 4000 rpm, and properties of the sorghum seeds bioethanol-pertalite blends are measured and analyzed. In addition, engine torque, brake power, brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC) and brake thermal efficiency (BTE) as well as carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbon (HC), and nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions are measured. The results show that BSFC decreased while BTE increased for a fuel blends containing 20% bioethanol at 3500 rpm engine speed, with each maximum value of 246.93 g/kWh and 36.28%. It is also found that CO and HC emissions are lower for the sorghum seeds bioethanol-pertalite blends. Based on the research results, it can be concluded that the sorghum seeds bioethanol-pertalite blends can improve engine performance and reduce exhaust gas emissions. Keywords: bioethanol; pertalite; performance engine; exhaust gas emission; alternatif fuel.

This study concentrates on enhancing the performance of the gasoline engine through nano-lubrication. The effect of Graphene nano-platelets (GNP) as lubricant additives in SAE 15W40 oil on the fuel energy consumption and piston ring wear is investigated. GNP-filled lubricating oil boosted the brake strength, engine torque, and mechanical efficiency, whereas the gasoline engine’s brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC) decreased by 5.3%–6.5% due to a 1.7%–3.46% improvement in engine mechanical efficiency. Further, emission results showed that the GNP-filled lubricating oil reduced the emissions of the engine by approximately 3%–6% as compared to the virgin lubricating oil. Furthermore, the piston ring wear was found to reduce by using GNP-filled nano-lubricant. The characterization of the worn piston ring surfaces showed that the tribo-film formed on wear tracks resulted in the improved performance of the engine thereby reducing abrasive wear and surface roughness. From these studies, an attempt has been made to co-relate engine performance characteristics with tribological perception to contribute in the direction of energy savings and fuel economy.

Fuel quality is an important indicator for the suitability of alternative fuel for the utilization in internal combustion (IC) engines. In this paper, light naphtha and fusel oil have been introduced as fuel additives for local low octane gasoline to operate a spark ignition (SI) engine. Investigated fuel samples have been prepared based on volume and denoted as GN10 (90% local gasoline and 10% naphtha), GF10 (90% local gasoline and 10% fusel oil), and GN5F5 (90% local gasoline, 5% naphtha and 5% fusel oil) in addition to G100 (Pure local gasoline). Engine tests have been conducted to evaluate engine performance and exhaust emissions at increasing speed and constant wide throttle opening (WTO). The study results reveal varying engine performance obtained with GN10 and GF10 with increasing engine speed compared to local gasoline fuel (G). Moreover, GN5F5 shows higher brake power, lower brake specific fuel consumption, and higher brake thermal efficiency compared to other investigated fuel samples over the whole engine speed. The higher CO and CO2 emissions were obtained with GN10 and GF10, respectively, over the entire engine speed and the minimum CO emissions observed with GN5F5. Moreover, the higher NOx emission was observed with pure local gasoline while the lowest was observed with GF10. On the other hand, GN5F5 shows slightly higher NOx emissions than GF10, which is lower than GN10 and gasoline. Accordingly, GN5F5 shows better engine performance and exhaust emissions, which can enhance the local low gasoline fuel quality using the locally available fuel additives.

The depletion of fossil fuel resource is creating demand for new renewable energy resources. An experimental study was conducted in order to determine effects of various fuel blends including small amount of ethanol, naphthalene and palm oil in petrol on a single cylinder spark ignition engine. Engine performance and fuel consumption were investigated using an engine dynamometer with various loads and engine speed. Engine performance was obtained by recording the engine torque during low, medium and high engine speed from 1200 rpm - 4700 rpm. Fuel consumption of the blends was determined by the brake specific fuel consumption. Palm oil showed about 50% reduction in engine torque for the blends of 3 % and 5 %, while naphthalene showed about 11% reduction for the engine torque when the engine speed is more than 4000 rpm. Ethanol showed a slight improvement of about 1% in engine torque. 20% of ethanol blending fuel gave out the best result in terms of torque. Besides, 20% of ethanol blend found to be decreased in fuel consumption for about 9% when running at 2500 rpm in comparison with 100% petrol.

In the case of injection gasoline engine, or better known as spark ignition engines, an effort to improve engine performance as well as to reduce fuel consumption is a fairly complex problem. Generally, engine performance improvement efforts will lead to increase in fuel consumption. However, this problem can be solved by implementing engine torque control based on intelligent regulation such as the fuzzy logic inference system. In this study, fuzzy logic engine torque regulation is used to control the throttle position entered by the driver to achieve optimal engine torque. An engine torque vs. throttle position and engine speed mapping for vehicles with economical function is used to build this control process regulation. From the simulation result, it can be concluded that this control strategy is very effective to reduce fuel consumption and simultaneously to optimize the engine performance.
