This article studied the effect of blending low‐viscous Pinus oil with high‐viscous Millettia Pinnata oil on CI engine characteristics. The three blends of a combination of Pinus oil and Millettia Pinnata oil (P70K30, P50K50, and P30K70) were tested in a single‐cylinder water‐cooled computerized diesel engine coupled with an eddy current dynamometer by varying the load from 0% to 100%. The performance result establishes a positive correlation between BTE and the amount of Pinus oil in the blended fuel. Among the tested biofuel samples, P70K30 has the highest brake thermal efficiency of 29.73% but is 4.8% lower than diesel. At full load, the BSFC and BSEC of P70K30 show a 7.4% and 8.6% drop compared to diesel fuel but are higher than P50K50 and P30K70. Among the tested biofuel samples, a maximum in‐cylinder pressure of 70.96 bar was observed for P70K30, which is higher than P50K50 and P30K70 but lower than diesel. The net heat release rate and rate of pressure rise were found to be 48.26 J/oCA and 5.57 bar/oCA for P70K30, the highest among all tested conditions. Cycle‐to‐cycle variations were studied by calculating the standard deviation, range, and coefficient of variation for the in‐cylinder peak pressure of 100 cycles. The P70K30 has a coefficient of variation of 1.24%, which is higher than the P50K50 and P30K70 but lower than diesel. The P‐v diagram concludes that the three tested biofuels have strong thermodynamic properties since they have a good expansion rate and a pattern similar to diesel fuel. The emissions results show that increasing the amount of Pinus oil in blended fuel increases the NOx to 1410 ppm emissions and decreases the CO to 0.18%, HC to 44 ppm, and smoke to 76.6%.

“…Pine oil is also an oxygenated fuel with a lower viscosity and boiling point and higher heating value compared to diesel, which helps to achieve cleaner and more efficient combustion. 16 Hence, it is an alternative fuel with great market potential. The power and brake thermal efficiency (BTE) increase as the pine oil blend ratio increased, and the emissions of carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbon (HC) and soot decrease despite the deterioration of nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions.…”

“…This delay in ignition in a PCCI engine by 5° crank angle (CA) poses challenges in monitoring of the start of combustion, resulting in reduced NO x and increased HC and CO emissions . Premixing of fuels in a PCCI engine results in an upsurge in carbon-based emissions and reduced nitrogen-based emissions . This is due to incomplete combustion in a PCCI engine.…”

The main aim of the study was to reduce carbon emissions in the atmosphere using a novel Andropogon narudus (AN) biofuel using higher air temperatures and reducing the consumption of conventional fossil fuel (diesel). The use of a heat exchange chamber within the air intake manifold is a popular method to reduce hydrocarbon (HC) and carbon monoxide (CO) emissions during cold starts. A premixed charged compression ignition engine in the dual-fuel mode was used in this study with raw diesel, raw AN oil, AN70+D30, AN80+D20, AN80+D20 (35 °C), AN80+D20 (40 °C), and AN80+D20 (45 °C). A chamber was designed and analyzed to measure the exit temperature and density change and to determine the reduction in volumetric efficiency of the engine, using Ansys Fluent software. A sustainability assessment study was performed to understand the feasibility of the fuel and the design using the Pugh Matrix. The fuel AN80+D20 with an air temperature of 45 °C was found to be superior to all other fuels in terms of brake thermal efficiency, reaching at 32.1%. D100 used the least amount of energy, whereas AN80+D20 used the most. Engine HC emission was at the lowest (45.01 ppm) for AN80+D20 fuel at 45 °C air input and reached the highest (50 ppm) for AN100 fuel. With an air temperature of 45 °C, CO emission was at its lowest for AN80+D20 gasoline (0.018%) and was at its highest for AN100 (0.072%). Nitrogen oxide emissions were the highest for AN80+D20 fuel with an air temperature of 45 °C, with an air concentration of 1254 ppm, whereas they were the lowest for AN100 (900 ppm). CO 2 values were reduced, with D100 showing the lowest levels and AN100 showing the highest. The smoke emission was minimum for AN80+D20 fuel at 45 °C, with a smoke number of 15 compared to 33 for D100 fuel. As per the Pugh Matrix assessment, AN80+D20 with 35 °C air temperature had higher scores compared to all of the other fuel mixtures.
