A Review of Performance and Emission Characteristics of a Catalytic Coated CI Engine with Biodiesel

This paper is a review outline of references of CI engine (Combustion Ignition Engine) journals. CI Engine is the most preferred sort of engine as a result of its high thermal efficiency than any other internal or external combustion engine. Due to the demand for petroleum fuel, increasing cost, and hazardous emission by CI Engine, it is required to enhance the performance, combustion, and emission characteristics of CI Engine. Bio-fuels are well-tried to be superb substitutes for the present diesel. Nowadays, numerous researches are going on in biodiesel blends at varying ratios to increase the performance of the engine. Also many researches are going on coating the piston head in order to reduce the black smoke at the exhaust.

Design and anylysis of gamma type Stirling engine

This article discusses how to design and manufacture a gamma type Stirling engine. The Stirling engine is an external combustion engine that does not produce any pollution. In this study, we studied the design and manufacturing of industrial Stirling engine. After designing and manufacturing all the parts, the designed Stirling engine has been launched by a 550-watt electric heater and has been tested in two uninsured and insulated modes. In non-insulated mode, the motor had a power of 68.69 watts with a yield of 12.66% and, when the motor is insulated, it had a power of 86.48 watts with a yield of 15.72%.

Thermodynamic Analysis of the Stirling Duplex Machine

The Stirling Duplex concept, in which a Stirling engine drives a Stirling heat pump, has many energy and environmental benefits. This machine is essentially composed of three movable elements, a working piston and two displacers, in the same enclosure. The machine has two circuits of non-polluting working fluid, in both parts, engine and refrigerator.The compatibility of the Stirling machine with any type of thermal energy as an external combustion engine contributes to its industrial interests and scientific research. In this paper, a study is presented to estimate Stirling Duplex$'$s parameters and efficiencies by considering the adiabatic model. It appears that the Stirling Duplex is more efficient as a heat pump than as a refrigerating machine.

Analysis of a second order thermodynamic model for the performance analysis of a Stirling engine prototype

The Stirling engine is a simple type of external-combustion engine with an external combustion engine based on cyclic compression and expansion of gas at different temperature levels. It has high efficiency; low vibration levels, simple structure and can run on any combustible fuels. It has been the object of numerous studies. This paper presents an analysis of a Stirling engine model GENOA 03 for electric power generation, of 3 KW of nominal power with pressurized air as working fluid, currently under development. To improve its performance and ensure a good operational reliability, it is necessary to carry out a modelling of the engine in all its operating range. This requires complex numerical models that simulate the behaviour of any element of the engine in a cycle. Two typologies of thermodynamic models are developed in this work: isothermal and adiabatic. The main benefits and shortcomings of each model are mentioned. The geometry and conditions of the engine have been adapted through the Matlab ® tool, in order to obtain the operative conditions of the cooler that you want to replace, as well as an approximation to the expected behaviour.
