Journal ArticleDOI
Advances in diesel–alcohol blends and their effects on the performance and emissions of diesel engines
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared the fuel properties of methanol, ethanol and butanol compared with conventional gasoline and diesel fuel and concluded that butanol is a better alternative for diesel fuel due to its superior fuel properties and miscibility with diesel fuel.
Journal ArticleDOI
Performance, emission and combustion characteristic of a multicylinder DI diesel engine running on diesel–ethanol–biodiesel blends of high ethanol content
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the feasibility of using high percentage of ethanol in diesel-ethanol blends, with biodiesel as a co-solvent and properties enhancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Performance and emission assessment of diesel-biodiesel-ethanol/bioethanol blend as a fuel in diesel engines: a review.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the opportunities and prospects of introducing diesel-biodiesel-ethanol/bioethanol blend as fuel in the existing diesel engines, based on engine emissions and its performance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental investigation of combustion, performance and emission characteristics of a diesel engine fuelled with diesel–biodiesel–alcohol blends
TL;DR: In this paper, the impacts of diesel-biodiesel-alcohol blends on the combustion, performance and emissions characteristics of a single-cylinder diesel engine were investigated, and the experimental results showed that the highest reduction values were observed on CO emission by 42%, 30% and 8% for the D90E10, D70C20E10 and D80C20 fuels, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI
Combustion noise radiation during dynamic diesel engine operation including effects of various biofuel blends: A review
TL;DR: In this article, the most important mechanisms are analyzed based on the key attributes of dynamic conditions, primarily in the form of turbocharger lag and slow cylinder wall temperature response, and the analysis focuses on acceleration but covers also two fundamental discrete transient schedules, namely cold starting and load increase.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe real engine flow and combustion processes, as well as engine operating characteristics and their operation, including engine design and operating parameters, engine characteristics, and operating characteristics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interest of combining an additive with diesel–ethanol blends for use in diesel engines
TL;DR: In this article, two organic additives were selected for their different physico-chemical parameters to study the behaviour of a diesel-ethanol mixture and two diesel engines with direct and indirect injection.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of ethanol blended diesel fuels on emissions from a diesel engine
TL;DR: In this paper, an additive used to keep the blends homogenous and stable, and an ignition improver, which can enhance cetane number of the blends, have favorable effects on the physicochemical properties related to ignition and combustion of diesel fuel with 10% and 30% ethanol by volume.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recent advances in the combustion of water fuel emulsion
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed recent advances in the combustion of water fuel emulsion which consists of base fuel and water doped with or without a trace content of surfactant.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of cetane number improver on heat release rate and emissions of high speed diesel engine fueled with ethanol–diesel blend fuel
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of cetane number improver on heat release rate and emissions of a high-speed diesel engine fueled with ethanol-diesel blend fuel was investigated, and the results showed that: the brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC) increased, the diesel equivalent BSFC decreased, the thermal efficiency improved remarkably, and NOx and smoke emissions decreased simultaneously.
