M. Annamalai,B. Dhinesh,K. Nanthagopal,P. SivaramaKrishnan,J. Isaac JoshuaRamesh Lalvani,M. Parthasarathy,K. Annamalai +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of using cerium oxide (CeO 2 ) nanoparticle as additive in Lemongrass Oil (LGO) emulsion fuel was experimentally investigated in a single cylinder, constant speed diesel engine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Combined effect of injection timing and combustion chamber geometry on the performance of a biodiesel fueled diesel engine
TL;DR: In this article, the combined effect of varying injection pressure and combustion chamber geometries on the combustion, performance and exhaust emissions, using a blend of 20% POME (pongamia oil methyl ester) by volume in diesel were evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI
An experimental analysis on the influence of fuel borne additives on the single cylinder diesel engine powered by Cymbopogon flexuosus biofuel
TL;DR: In this article, a novel plant-based biofuel, namely Cymbopogon flexuous biofuel was identified, which has excellent fuel properties and is widely available in India and it seems to have the potential to make India selfsufficient in energy production.
Journal ArticleDOI
An assessment on performance, emission and combustion characteristics of single cylinder diesel engine powered by Cymbopogon flexuosus biofuel
TL;DR: In this paper, the experimental analysis of a new biofuel feedstock as an alternative fuel that has not drawn much attention among the researchers is discussed about the experimental analyses of Cymbopogon flexuosus feedstock.
Journal Article
The Status of Biodiesel as an Alternative Fuel for Diesel Engine – An Overview
S. Jaichandar,K. Annamalai +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed the history of biodiesel development and production practices and compared the effect of use of bio-diesel fuel on engine power, fuel consumption and thermal efficiency with that of conventional diesel fuel.
