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.
