Analysis of a diesel engine fueled with ternary fuel blends and alumina nano-additives at various combustion chamber geometries
George Antony Casmir Jayaseelan,Anderson Arul Gnana Dhas,Harish Venu,Jayaprabakar Jayaraman,Prabhu Appavu +4 more
TL;DR: In this article, the impact of various combustion chamber geometries in a direct injection engine fueled with diesel-biodiesel-ethanol blends mixed with alumina nano-additives was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental investigations on combustion, performance, and emission characteristics of stationary CI engine fueled with diesel–methanol and biodiesel–methanol blends
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the experimental studies of the one-cylinder, stationary diesel engine powered by blends of diesel and biodiesel with methanol, and the analysis of the test results showed that in both cases the alcohol content in the mixture should not exceed 30%.

Methanol As An Internal Combustion on Engine Fuel
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors systematically describe the applications such as methanol-gasoline, methanoline-diesel, or other blends that can be used in the internal combustion (IC) engines.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estimation of carbon-oxide emissions of tractors during operation and correlation with the not-to-exceed zone
TL;DR: In this paper, the average work rate of tractors measured under field conditions, together with the operating time in an engine's work mode, fuel consumption, and CO2 and CO emissions, have been measured.
Journal ArticleDOI
Numerical investigation of the performance and emission parameters of a diesel engine fuelled with diesel - biodiesel - methanol blends
TL;DR: A numerical simulation has been conducted in this article to evaluate the effect of methanol addition to the blend of diesel and palm streain biodiesel and the results indicate that except a minor increase in the brake specific fuel consumption, the entire performance and emission characteristics with methanoline blended diesel-biodiesel blends are much better than that of diesel.

The effect of alcohol fumigation on diesel engine performance and emissions
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of ethanol fumigation (i.e., the addition of ethanol to the intake air manifold) and ethanol-diesel fuel blends on the performance and emissions of a single cylinder diesel engine have been investigated experimentally and compared.
Journal ArticleDOI
Emission reduction potential of using ethanol–biodiesel–diesel fuel blend on a heavy-duty diesel engine
TL;DR: In this article, the emission characteristics of a three compounds oxygenated diesel fuel blend (BE-diesel), on a Cummins-4B diesel engine were analyzed and the results showed a significant reduction in PM emissions and 2-14% increase of NOx emissions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Performance and combustion characteristics of biodiesel–diesel–methanol blend fuelled engine
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of using methanol as additive to biodiesel-diesel blends on the engine performance, emissions and combustion characteristics of a direct injection diesel engine under variable operating conditions were evaluated.

Green energy: Water-containing acetone–butanol–ethanol diesel blends fueled in diesel engines
TL;DR: In this paper, a series of water-containing ABE-diesel blends were investigated to simulate the use of ABE fermentation products without dehydration and no addition of surfactants, and it was found that ABE20W0.5 enhanced brake thermal efficiencies (BTE) by 3.26-8.56%.

Study on performance and emissions of a passenger-car diesel engine fueled with butanol–diesel blends
TL;DR: In this article, a high-speed direct injection (DI) diesel engine for passenger-car application for varied loads at two representative engine speeds was tested, and the results showed that butanol-diesel blends slightly increased combustion pressure and accelerated burning rate.
