Combustion investigation of ternary blend mixture of biodiesel/n-butanol/diesel: CI engine performance and emission control

Study on Using Graphene and Graphite Nanoparticles as Fuel Additives in Waste Cooking Oil Biodiesel

“…Smoke emissions for B40NCP1 and B40C1 were similar to D100 and B40 at all engine loads. Besides, adding butanol to the blends lowered the temperature by absorbing its high heat of vaporisation, resulting in incomplete combustion, as previously observed by Thakkar et al [36]. The high in-cylinder temperature reduced such an impact under full load.…”

“…The delay in SoC was due to the higher viscosity and low in-cylinder temperature at low engine load. In addition, the presence of butanol affected the SoC due to its higher latent heat of vaporisation and hence delayed the SoC [36]. It is observed that the SoC was retarded for all the blends compared to W100 even though W100 has a higher viscosity.…”

“…The presence of fossil diesel in B40 and B50 blends led to CVs relatively higher than B80 and B90. The relatively high calorific values of NCP and C additives and the absence of oxygen led to increasing the CVs of the developed blends by increasing their percentage [36]. For example, the CV for B40NCP0.5 was 0.18% lower than B40NCP1, and CV of B40C0.5 was 0.30% lower than B40C1.…”

Study of performance parameters and emissions of four stroke CI engine using solketal-biodiesel blends

“…Optimal operating parameters of the engine was analyzed by incrementing and decrementing the compression ratio upto CR18 and CR17 respectively to found the effect of jojoba biodieseldiesel bends on emission and performance phenomenon in the four stroke single cylinder compression ignition engine [14]. The authors performed the test on petro-diesel combustion engine to see the effects of a novel ternary blend of n-butanol and castor oil methyl ester (COME) and obtained optimum blending proportion which can simultaneously reduce UHC (Unburnt Hydro carbon), CO and NOx without affecting engine performance [15]. Kumar et al observed a significant decrease in HC, & CO emission with most types of biodiesel and no observation specifically to NOx emission was reported [16].…”

Modelización de la combustión en tres etapas de un motor CI CRDI alimentado con mezcla binaria

“…En la modelización de una sola zona, las características de la combustión del motor pueden entenderse mediante un modelo de tasa de liberación de calor aparente (AHRR) en el que se considera la primera ley de la termodinámica para el balance de energía. El AHRR puede determinarse a partir de los datos de presión en el cilindro medidos en función del ángulo del cigüeñal (𝜃) [11]. La fracción de quemado (𝑋 𝑏 ) en cualquier etapa de la combustión puede predecirse aplicando la función de Wiebe, que ha sido utilizada por muchos investigadores [10][11][12] para analizar las características de combustión de diferentes combustibles y mezclas de combustibles.…”
