The emission characteristics of methyl ester of refined rice bran oil – diesel blend mixed in the proportion of 10:90, 20:80, 30:70, 50:50 and 10:0 (v/v) were studied. The emission of carbon monoxide, unburnt hydrocarbons, nitric oxide and nitrogen di oxide by different fuels at various load on 3.73 kW C.I. engine were compared with respect to diesel. The emission of carbon monoxide from the en...

oxides of nitrogen are the major emission from a diesel engine. it is due to heterogeneous diffusion combustion system with fuel-rich regions, which produce high local temperature around the periphery of the spray where high formation rate of no is promoted. various techniques are therefore employed to reduce the nox emission like egr, scr, etc. in this present work a rotating injector is a tec...

In this paper, the control scheme of a Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG)–diesel dual-fuel engine with electronic control is illustrated, the external characteristics and load characteristics of the LPG– diesel dual-fuel engine and the diesel engine are compared and analyzed. The experimental results show that, compared with diesel, the output performance of dual fuel is not reduced, while smoke emi...

Hexanol was added in ethanol – diesel fuel to prevent separation of ethanol from diesel in this study. The ethanol blend proportion can be increased upto 45% in volume by adding the Hexanol. Engine performance and emissions characteristics of the fuel blends were investigated on a diesel engine and compared with diesel fuel. Experimental results show smoke emission decreases significantly with ...

The study investigates the effect of aluminium oxide nanoparticles as an additive to Madhuca Indica (mahua) methyl ester blends on performance, emission analysis of a single-cylinder direct injection diesel engine operated at a constant speed at different operating conditions. The test fuels are indicated as B10A0.2, B10A0.4, B20A0.2, B20A0.4 and diesel respectively. The results indica...

Air pollution is one of the major issues about the diesel engines in todays' world. It is a special concern in those areas that have difficulty meeting health-based outdoor air quality standards. Natural gas has low emission and resource abundance and also conventional compression ignition engine can be easily converted to a dual fuel mode to use natural gas as main fuel and diesel as pilot ...

The present work is focused on determining the performance and emission characteristics biodiesel in DI diesel engine. Experimental investigation of diesel engine was made with 25% (B25), 50% (B50) and 75% (B75) and 100%(B100) blending of Ziziphus jujuba oil with diesel and the results were compared with diesel. Keywords— Ziziphus jujuba, Indian jujube, Edible, Blending, direct injection (DI) d...

The dual-fuel diesel engine (D.F.D.E) is a conventional diesel engine in which much of the energy released, hence power, comes from the combustion of gaseous fuel such as natural gas. The exhaust emission characteristics of the D.F.D.E needs further refinements, particularly in terms of reduction of Unburnt Hydrocarbons (U7HC) and Carbon Monoxide (CO) emission, because the concentration of thes...
