Experimental Study of the Effect of Fuel Catalytic Additive on Specific Fuel Consumption and Exhaust Emissions in Diesel Engine

Reduction of emissions and fuel consumption of diesel engine by using common rail fuel injection and aftertreatment systems

In this experimental study, the fuel system of the OM364 diesel engine manufactured by IDEM company, which operates in the basic mode with inline fuel pump and mechanical governor control, is upgraded to a common rail system with electronic control by the ECU. Also, emmssion of exhaust gases is reduced by SCR and DOC catalysts then performance and emmission parameters of engine are compared i...

An Experimental Investigation of Diesel Engines Fuel Injection Pressure Effect on Power Performance and Fuel Consumption

The objective of this paper is to investigate the effect of fuel injection pressure on power performance and fuel consumption of diesel engine. In a diesel engine, fuel injection pressure is an important aspect of the engines’ power performance in order to obtain combustion treatment. The experiments in this paper are performed on a four-cylinder two-stroke direct injection diesel engine. The d...

Impact of Methanol–Gasoline Fuel Blends on the Performance and Exhaust Emissions of a SI Engine

Numerical study of the effect of fuel injection timing on the ignition delay, performance parameters and exhaust emission of gas/dual fuel diesel engine using Computational Fluid Dynamics

Today, due to the various usage of compression ignition engines in urban transportation, as well as the need to reduce exhaust emissions and control fuel consumption, the use of alternative fuels has become common in diesel engines. Gaseous fuel is one of the most common alternative fuels that can be used in diesel engines. The utilization of alternative fuels in compression ignition engines re...

Experimental Study of the Effect of Castor Oil Biodiesel Fuel on Performance and Emissions of Turbocharged DI Diesel

Experimental test are carried out on a semi-heavy duty Motorsazan MT4.244 agricultural engine at various loads in order to evaluate performance and emissions of DI diesel engine using the blends of diesel fuel with 5%, 10%,15%,20% , 30%(by volume) Castor oil and pure diesel fuel separately. The result show that maximum decreasing of PM emission is 73.2% and is observed in B15 at 50%load and the...
