The conversion of biomass to energy (also called bio energy) encompasses a wide range of different types and sources of biomass, conversion options, end user applicationsand infrastructure requirements. Mustard oil biodiesel performed very well in vehicles. Fuel consumption increased compared to fossil diesel because biodiesel has slightly less energy per gallon than diesel fuel. The fuel filte...

in this study, a numerical simulation using the cfd software, fluent, has been conducted to examine the effect of various shapes of the venturi component sections in order to find the optimum venturi specifications to increase the egr rate with minimum pressure loss at the part load operation range. the cfd results reveal that the venturi should be precisely optimized to introduce the required ...

The objective of this study is to investigate the combustion in a pilot-ignited supercharged dual-fuel engine, fueled with different types of gaseous fuels under various equivalence ratios. It is found that if certain operating conditions are maintained, conventional dual-fuel engine combustion mode can be transformed to the combustion mode with the two-stage heat release. This mode of combusti...

The paper shows a test results of single cylinder, direct injected, self ignited dual fuel engine. One has analysed a combustion parameters calculated on base of recorded indicator diagrams. The comparison included: the ignition delay period, the cylinder pressure, the rate of pressure rise, the average medium temperature, the heat release rate, the total combustion time and the indicated effic...

Application of Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) in diesel engines has always been important, especially in the field of automotive engineering. This is due to easy accessibility, better mixing quality and good combustion characteristics of the CNG fuel. In this study the application of CNG fuel along with diesel oil in a heavy duty direct-injection automotive diesel engine is experimentally investi...

In this computational research, the separate and simultaneous impacts of diesel direct injection timing, fuel spraying cone angle, and hydrogen gas addition on combustion characteristics, output emissions, and performance in a single-cylinder direct injection diesel engine was studied. In order to conduct the simulations, valid and reliable models for combustion, break-up, and for turbulence wa...
