Biofuel, a form of renewable fuel, has promising future, especially as the alternative fuel for transportation. Biofuel is usually blended with petroleum fuel and used in flex fuel engines. Since the characteristics of biofuel are quite different from those of the petroleum based fuel, it is very important to optimize the combustion properties for biofuel engines under different fuel blends. Th...

The performance of a marine dual-fuel engine, equipped with an innovative hybrid turbocharger producing electric power to satisfy part the ship’s load, is presented by simulation comparison traditional turbocharging technology. two distinct fuel types, combined turbocharger, involve substantial change in engine control modes, resulting more flexible and efficient management. Therefore, investig...

The paper investigates the result on the existing diesel engine that can suitably modified to operate on the diesel fuel mode to conserve diesel and also reduce environmental pollution. The conventional fuels, petrol’s and diesel for internal combustion engines are exhausted at an alarming rate, due to increase of vehicle population and also these fuel causes environmental problems. Make these ...

Due to the shortage of liquid hydrocarbon fuels for compression ignition engines, researchers have constantly been looking for alternative fuels. Recently, dim ethyl ether (DME) with its interesting properties, such as high cetane number and low exhaust emission has drawn a lot of interst as a suitable fuel for diesel engines. The main objective of this study was to assess the potentials and fe...
