Journal ArticleDOI
Unregulated emissions and health risk potential from biodiesel (KB5, KB20) and methanol blend (M5) fuelled transportation diesel engines
Avinash Kumar Agarwal,Pravesh Chandra Shukla,Chetankumar Patel,Jai Gopal Gupta,Nikhil Sharma,Rajesh Kumar Prasad,Rashmi A. Agarwal +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a four-cylinder, 1.4-l, compression ignition (CI) engine was used for characterization of unregulated gaseous exhaust emissions measured at 2500rpm at varying engine loads.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of straight vegetable oil blends and biodiesel blends on wear of mechanical fuel injection equipment of a constant speed diesel engine
TL;DR: In this article, a non-firing engine FIE simulator test rig prototype was developed and 250h endurance test of FIE was performed with an objective to ensure the long-term compatibility and durability of biofuel blends.
Journal ArticleDOI
Unregulated emissions from a gasohol (E5, E15, M5, and M15) fuelled spark ignition engine
Avinash Kumar Agarwal,Pravesh Chandra Shukla,Jai Gopal Gupta,Chetankumar Patel,Rajesh Kumar Prasad,Nikhil Sharma +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a 4-cylinder, water-cooled, multipoint port fuel injection (MPFI) gasoline engine coupled with an eddy current dynamometer was used.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adaptation of Methanol–Dodecanol–Diesel Blend in Diesel Genset Engine
Avinash Kumar Agarwal,Nikhil Sharma,Akhilendra Pratap Singh,Vikram Kumar,Dev Prakash Satsangi,Chetankumar Patel +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, a single-cylinder engine fueled with MD10 and MD15 was compared with baseline mineral diesel using a fuel additive (1-dodecanol), and the results indicated that methanol blending with mineral diesel resulted in superior combustion, performance, emissions, and particulate characteristics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spray droplet size distribution and droplet velocity measurements in a firing optical engine
TL;DR: In this paper, the Artium phase Doppler interferometer (PDI) was used for in situ measurements through a cylindrical window and comparative macroscopic spray characteristics in a firing Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI) optical engine to a constant volume spray chamber (CVSC) for spray droplet size-velocity distributions.
