“…The increase in specific fuel consumption due to the calorific value of regular diesel was higher than the calorific value of biodiesel by a difference of (3.713 MJ/kg). Devaraj Naik et al 26 emphasized that the higher BSFC when using biodiesel is due to the lower calorific value compared to fossil diesel. 3.…”

Devaraj Naik et al 26 emphasized that the higher BSFC when using biodiesel is due to the lower calorific value compared to fossil diesel. The thermal efficiency of the engine with biodiesel mixtures decreased compared to regular diesel due to the high viscosity, high density, and low calorific value of biodiesel.…”

This practical study examined the effect of engine torque on engine performance and emissions. The most important parameters of engine performance are thermal efficiency, brake power (BP), and specific fuel consumption. As for exhaust emissions, the most important of which are hydrocarbons (HCs), carbon monoxide (CO), and nitrogen oxides (NOx). The experiment was conducted for a single‐cylinder, four‐stroke compression ignition engine. Mixtures (B0, B10, B20, B30, and B40) were taken from biodiesel prepared from sunflower oil by the esterification method. The engine speed was fixed at 1700 rpm, and torque variable was from 0 to 10 N m. The results indicated a decrease in engine BP by an average of 19.5 W, a decrease in thermal efficiency by an average of 1.058%, while an increase in fuel consumption by an average of 0.095 kg/kW h−1 compared to diesel. As for exhaust emissions, HC emissions decreased by 5.8 ppm, while CO decreased by 0.0207%, and NOx emissions increased by 138.5 ppm compared to diesel, due to changes in the properties of biodiesel, such as high density, viscosity, and low calorific value compared to the properties of regular diesel

“…Initially, the fuel ignites and burns quickly at the periphery of the torch, then the flame penetrates to the core, local foci of flame appear around local accumulations of evaporating fuel. The intensity of combustion of the main portion of fuel enclosed inside the flame largely depends on the intensity of oxygen entering the combustion zone and the removal of combustion products [22][23][24]. At the same time, the combustion products formed on the periphery of the torch or the local flame focus isolate this focus and hinder the flow of oxygen into the combustion zone.…”

Modeling of in-cylinder processes occurring in a dual-fuel engine is necessary to obtain the ignition delay period as a function of the angle of rotation of the crankshaft and the subsequent calculation of its effective and environmental indicators. There is a need to identify the theoretical dependence of the fuel combustion process on the parameters that determine the operating modes of a dual-fuel engine, which leads to the need to create a mathematical model that allows the most accurate description of the combustion process, taking into account the maximum possible number of factors. The paper considers the optimization of the parameters of the workflow and the prediction of the performance of the projected and existing dual-fuel engines.

“…Summing up the considerations on biodiesel, it can be said that biodiesel is produced in the form of rapeseed oil [86][87][88][89][90], sunflower oil [91][92][93] or palm oil [78,94,95] or obtained from wood biomass [96]. Moreover, mixtures of diesel oil with NG [63,76,97,98], CNG [99][100][101] and LNG [102][103][104] or diesel fuel with Brown's gas [105] are used.…”

Road transport is one of the most important factors for the national economy due to its universality and comprehensive possibilities of transporting people and goods. Unfortunately, from the energy point of view, it is also the most cost-intensive and has a negative influence on the natural environment. For these reasons, issues related to limiting the use of conventional fuels are very important, which results in reducing emissions from this sector, as well as reducing transport costs. This article presents currently used energy sources for propulsion of road vehicles, including fossil and alternative fuels, gaseous fuels and other energy sources such as fuel cells. The following section presents technologies that allow to recover some of the energy lost in motor vehicles and internal combustion engines used for their propulsion. The principle of operation of these solutions, their structure and their main features are presented. The last part focuses on discussing and identifying the most universal technologies for energy harvesting in vehicles and showing further directions of energy development in the automotive sector.
