Journal ArticleDOI
Comparative analyses of diesel–waste oil biodiesel and propanol, n-butanol or 1-pentanol blends in a diesel engine
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigate and compare the basic fuel properties of the ternary blends of diesel (D), waste oil methyl ester (biodiesel (B)) and the higher alcohols of propanol (Pro), n-butanol (nB) and 1-pentanol (Pn), and their effects on engine performance and exhaust emissions of a diesel engine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Extensive analyses of diesel–vegetable oil–n-butanol ternary blends in a diesel engine
TL;DR: In this article, n-butanol was used as the common solvent and crude canola (Cn), soybean (Sb), sunflower (Sf), corn (Cr), olive (Ol), and hazelnut oil (Hn) components were used for making microemulsification of diesel fuel (D)-vegetable oil blends.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental investigation of engine performance and exhaust emissions of a diesel engine fueled with diesel-n-butanol-vegetable oil blends
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of using n-butanol in vegetable oil-diesel fuel blends on engine performance and exhaust emissions of a direct injection diesel engine operating at full load (100% throttle conditions) with different engine speeds without any engine modification was evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of a cetane improver on fuel properties and engine characteristics of a diesel engine fueled with the blends of diesel, hazelnut oil and higher carbon alcohol
TL;DR: In this article, 2-ethylhexyl nitrate (EHN) cetane improver was added at 500, 1000 and 2000ppm concentration to the microemulsions of D (70 vol.%) and Pn (10 vol.%).
Journal ArticleDOI
Response surface methodology based optimization of diesel-n-butanol -cotton oil ternary blend ratios to improve engine performance and exhaust emission characteristics
TL;DR: In this article, the authors focused on finding diesel fuel, n-butanol, and cotton oil optimum blend ratios for diesel engine applications by using the response surface method (RSM), where test fuels were prepared by choosing 7 different concentrations, where phase decomposition did not occur in the phase diagram of −10°C.
