Performance And Emission

In present days industries are growing at a rapid rate and so as the usage of the diesel. The fossil fuels are limited in nature, the increased usage of diesel is resulting in the depletion of its reserves this gives rise to the need of alternative fuels. Due to low specific fuel consumption and supreme power efficiency it has vast applications compared to other fuels but NOX and smoke has seriously causing problem to environment. For this the Palmyra oil has same properties of diesel with varying compression ratios effects the performance and emission characteristics are evaluated. In this process step wise increase of CRs from 16 initially .Then increases EGRs of 0%,5% and 10% and studied performance and emission characteristics. There is improvement in engine efficiency during EGR increment and at low load .There is simultanesly decrease in NOX emissions . The single cylinder four stroke variable compression performance and emissions can be varied.. when fuel is pure diesel,b15and b35 of Palmyra oil is examined and bear with standard automobile usable diesel was conducted at compression ratio of 16:1 at the degrees of 19 and 23 degrees. The influence of Palmyra oil like compression ratio on fuel consumption ,brake thermal efficiency and exhaust gas emissions like NOx and hc has been investigated .the overall optimum is found to be b15 biodiesel –diesel blended for compression ratio of 16 at different exhaust gas recirculation such as 0, 5 and 10. The same experimentation is done for other blends B15 and B35 with palmyra oil. All the values are compared with each other. The configuration which achieved highest Break thermal efficiency is compared to the common diesel engine configuration used and the advantages and the disadvantages are listed out

In this present paper, an attempt has been made to examine the performance and emission characteristics of a single cylinder diesel engine fueled with blends of mixed biodiesel (Thevetia peruviana, Neem, Jatropha, Pongamia). Experiments were conducted with various blends of mixed biodiesel in CI engine for different loads. The results show that lower brake thermal efficiency and higher brake specific fuel consumption were obtained with mixed biodiesel blends when compared with diesel. Lower the value of CO and HC and higher the value of CO2 emissions were determined for mixed biodiesel blends compared to that of diesel. Also, higher in NOx and lower smoke opacity were found compared to diesel.

Performance And Emission

In this present work, experiments were conducted on a VCR Diesel engine with diesel, Neem oil biodiesel and Di-ethyl ether mixed with neem oil biodiesel. The performance and emission characteristics were evaluated and compared. The study shown that the Brake thermal efficiency increased and the brake specific fuel consumption reduced with B10 blend of neem oil biodiesel compared to diesel. The emissions of CO, CO2 were reduced but HC and smoke were increased with the use of biodiesel than diesel. The addition of Diethyl Ether (DEE) further improved the performance and decreased the emissions of CO and CO2 of the engine at B20DEE20 blend compared to other blends of biodiesel and diesel.

Performance And Emission

In the present work on unheated Corn oil methyl ester and Preheated Corn oil methyl ester is used to prepare different concentration blends with diesel, B20, B40 and B60 were used as alternative fuels in a compression ignition engine. The properties like calorific value, flash point, fire point and viscosity of these oils were determined. The viscosity of corn oils has been reduced through transterification process. The waste heat energy from the exhaust gas was reused to preheat the corn oil around 80°C by adjusting the flow rate of exhaust gas.  The performance and emission characteristics of a single cylinder, direct injection diesel engine were determined using unheated corn oil, Preheated Corn oil and diesel. Brake thermal efficiency of preheated B20 was more than other blends and unheated fuels but equal to diesel fuel. Brake specific fuel consumption, CO2 and HC of preheated B20 were less than unheated fuels and diesel. However, the NOx emission of preheated B20 was little higher than unheated fuels and diesel due to high combustion temperature. By considering the result of all the factors, preheated B20 blend was found to be a suitable alternative for diesel fuel.

Abstract Indeed, the development of alternative fuels for use in internal combustion engines has become an essential requirement to meet the energy demand and to deal with the different problems related to fuel. The research in this domain leads to the identification of adverse fuel properties and for their solution standard limits are being defined. This paper outlines an investigation of performance and combustion characteristics of a 4-stroke diesel engine using different cymbopogon (lemongrass) - diesel fuel blends. 10% to 40% cymbopogon is mixed with diesel fuel and tested for performance characteristics like brake specific fuel consumption and brake thermal efficiency. To obtain emission characteristics smoke density in the terms of HSU has been measured. In result, it has observed that there is an increase of 5% in brake thermal efficiency and 16.33% decrease in brake specific fuel consumption. Regarding emission characteristics, a 12.9% decrease in smoke emission has been found.
