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
Influence on the effect of zinc oxide and titanium dioxide nanoparticles as an additive with Calophyllum inophyllum methyl ester in a CI engine
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of zinc oxide and titanium dioxide nanoparticles addition in Calophyllum inophyllium biodiesel in a twin cylinder water cooled direct injection four stroke diesel engine was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
An experimental study on the effect of nanoparticles with novel tamarind seed methyl ester for diesel engine applications
TL;DR: The tamarind seed methyl ester is blended with diesel at 10, 20% and 30% concentrations by volume and all the fuel samples have been tested in diesel engine for the selection of an optimum blend for nanoparticle addition.
Journal ArticleDOI
A compressive review on the effects of alcohols and nanoparticles as an oxygenated enhancer in compression ignition engine
K. Nanthagopal,R. Susanth Kishna,Abdulaziz Atabani,Ala’a H. Al-Muhtaseb,Gopalakrishnan Kumar,Gopalakrishnan Kumar,B. Ashok +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, a review report summarizes the investigations carried out by the researchers on addition of various alcohols with diesel and biodiesel in different diesel engines and their impact on compression ignition engine performance, combustion and emission characteristics have also been studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of fuel injection pressures on Calophyllum inophyllum methyl ester fuelled direct injection diesel engine
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of Calophyllum inophyllium methyl ester on diesel engine performance, emission and combustion characteristics at different injection pressures was investigated. But the results showed that the combustion characteristics of biodiesel at all injection pressures followed a similar trend to that of conventional diesel.
