In order to deeply mine the information of Oil Atomic Emission Spectrum Data, a simulation model and a prediction model of Cu concentration of a type of sixcylinder diesel engine were established by applying Generalized Regression Neural Network. Seven different working conditions had been set up and sixty-nine oil samples had been taken from engine. The results show that the absolute errors of...

The main objective of the research is to compare the accurateness of Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) and Multiple Linear Regressions (MLR) model for Specific Fuel Consumption for pyrolysis oil blended with diesel used in a single cylinder diesel engine. In this study, parameters i. e. Injection Timing, Injection Pressure, Compression Ratio, and Load are taken. Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) ...

The effect of spent engine oil (SEO) on soil properties and growth of maize (Zea mays L.) was investigated. Five treatments (0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6 and 0.8 l/kg) of the spent oil were applied to soil in perforated poly bags with maize stands at four weeks after sowing. Soil analysis showed that SEO had no effect on both the pH and texture of the soil. Organic C, N and Mg in the contaminated soils i...

This paper shows the results of an investigation carried out to assess the application of different fuels produced by blending diesel fuel with methyl ester obtained from mixture of 75% (v/v) sunflower oil and 25% (v/v) used cooking oil on a Kubota agricultural indirect injection diesel engine, natural aspirated, and with a rated horsepower of 19.7 kW. Seven fuels, namely diesel fuel; 90:10, 80...

Rising petroleum prices, an increasing threat to the environment from exhaust emissions, global warming and the threat of supply instabilities has led to the choice of inedible Mahua oil (MO) as one of the main alternative fuels to diesel oil in India. In the present work, MO was converted into biodiesel by transesterification using methanol and sodium hydroxide. The cost of Mahua oil biodiesel...

In order to develop more efficient engines, it is essential to optimize the lubrication circuit of the power train systems. In this paper, during an engine design and development process, a network analysis of the engine lubrication system is described in detail. Two elements have been added to the lubrication circuit in the modified engine. These elements are hydraulic lifters and an Anti-drai...

In the present work, we focus on long-term and permanent measurements of approximately two years on a 192 kWel Gas Otto CHP (combined heat and power) unit at a full-scale research biogas plant. In detail the influence of 600 h and 1800 h maintenance intervals on electrical efficiency consumption and exhaust gas emissions such as NOx and CO have been studied under real life conditions. Lubricati...

Engine oils undergo oxidative degradation and wears out during service. Hence it is important to characterize ageing of engine oils at different simulated conditions to evaluate the performance of existing oils and also design new formulations. This work focuses on characterizing the thermo-oxidative degradation of synthetic and semi-synthetic engine oils aged at 120, 149 and 200 °C. Apparent a...

Dimensional Discrepancies Overrolling of Debris Corrosion Other Fatigue Absrrucr-The development of an in-line, full flow oil debris sensor for aircraft engine condition assessment is described. First used on the F22 fighter, this sensor is the only “ all-metals” debris detector in production. The sensor is based on an inductive measurement technique which enables the system to detect, count an...
