Simultaneous improvement in both exhaust emissions and fuel consumption by means of Fischer–Tropsch diesel fuels

Abstract: In recent years, paraffinic fuels have attracted attention because of their potential for reducing diesel exhaust emissions, mainly smoke or particulate matter emissions. One of the paraffinic fuels, a Fischer-Tropsch diesel fuel, was selected to demonstrate the lower exhaust emissions while improving fuel economy in this study. To examine the detailed effects of fuel specifications on diesel combustion and emissions, preliminarily tests for three Fischer-Tropsch fuels and a baseline diesel fuel were carried o… Show more

“…The single-cylinder HD optical engine was converted from a Hino production engine, and the combustion system features a pancake combustion chamber with a six-hole injector and a medium intensity swirl. 12 The engine was operated at a 20% light load with an excess air ratio of 1.92 and a boost pressure of 123 kPa (abs) using JIS#2 diesel fuel. Two injection strategies with only main injection and with pilot injection were tested.…”

“…The researcher studies about the application of F-T Diesel engine shows that [1][2][3][4][5], F-T diesel has higher cetane ratio, shorter ignition delay period and softer combustion, which can effectively reduce the vibration and noise of Diesel engine. The cetane number is a sign of the ignition delay of diesel fuel, and higher cetane numbers indicate that the fuel is easier to ignite.…”
