Di-ethyl ether-diesel blends fuelled off-road tractor engine: Part-II: Unregulated and particulate emission characteristics

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of DEE-diesel blends on unregulated and particulate emissions from an off-road tractor engine was investigated, and the authors concluded that DEE could potentially displace mineral diesel partially, without any changes in fuel injection equipment, and achieve an improvement in PM-NOx trade-off in offroad transport diesel engines.

Predicting Sooting Propensity of Oxygenated Fuels Using Artificial Neural Networks

TL;DR: In this paper, an ANN model was developed to predict the yield sooting index (YSI) of oxygenated fuels using the functional group approach, which can be used for YSI prediction of hydrocarbon fuels containing alcohol and ether-based oxygenates as additives with a high degree of accuracy.

A Numerical Analysis of the Effects of Equivalence Ratio Measurement Accuracy on the Engine Efficiency and Emissions at Varied Compression Ratios

TL;DR: In this article, the significance of the accuracy of air-fuel ratio measurements at different compression ratios was analyzed and the results showed that carbon monoxide (CO) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) were sensitive to the equivalence ratio regardless of the compression ratio.

On-line measurements of diesel nanoparticle composition and volatility

TL;DR: In this article, a thermal desorption particle beam mass spectrometer (TDPBMS) and tandem differential mobility analyzers (TDMA) were used for on-line measurements of the chemical composition and volatility of nanoparticles and larger particles emitted from a modern, heavy-duty diesel engine operated at light and medium loads under laboratory conditions.
