Effect of compression ratio on a single cylinder diesel engine operated with Ternary fuel
The objective of this research is to evaluate the characteristics of an engine by using diesel–biodiesel-ethanol (Ternary fuel) into the present VCR (Variable Compression Ratio) single-cylinder four-stroke water-cooled diesel engine. In this investigation, palm oil is taken as biodiesel. The world needs biodiesel due to the deficiency of fossil fuels. The best choice is selecting the biodiesel and ethanol because they are available from the renewable feedstock, non-toxicity to the environment and it is eco-friendly. In blending stage B30 as a blend chosen because it contains 70% of diesel, 20% of biodiesel as palm oil an...

Emission reduction techniques in CI engine with catalytic converter
The objective of this research work is to control the NOx emission and to develop a low-cost three way catalytic converter. This catalytic converter is assembled in the exhaust manifold region of a single cylinder four stroke diesel engine. The emissions from the engine are measured using a five gas analyser and the results are tabulated.

Performance study of a single cylinder diesel engine using diesel with Pongamia pinnata and Camelina sativa seed oil blends
Publication date: Available online 11 July 2019Source: Materials Today: ProceedingsAuthor(s): G. Murali, M. Anusha, M. ArunkumarAbstractCurrent paper studies the renewable energy of Camelina sativa biodiesel fuel which is having new fuel properties. Here Camelina sativa seed oil and Pongamia with equal proportions was used in the form of blends at various proportions with diesel. The blending ratios were taken as 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, and 100% respectively, used as fuel in a single cylinder four stroke diesel engine. Further the engine emissions of different fuel usage have been investigated. The results shows that SFC incre...

Production of biodiesel from Cordiamyxa bio-oil using BaMoO4-Ce2O3 nanoparticles as an alternative fuel for Diesel Engine
Publication date: Available online 2 February 2019Source: Materials LettersAuthor(s): M. KarthikeyanAbstractIn recent years, the production of biodiesel has rapidly increased due to its benefits and to resolve the problem findings present in environmental pollution. In, this study barium salts doped with cerium oxide are used as a heterogeneous catalyst for the production of biodiesel from Cordiamyxa oil. The synthesized BaMoO4-Ce2O3 nanocatalyst has characterized by XRD (X-ray powder diffraction) and SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope) analysis. Methanol to a molar ratio of oil from 12:1 to 16:1 has studied and got the opt...

Effects of Partial Addition of Butanol in a Rubber seed Oil Methyl Ester Diesel Blend
Publication date: 2018Source: Materials Today: Proceedings, Volume 5, Issue 11, Part 2Author(s): V.V. Patil, R.S. PatilAbstractExperiments were conducted to obtain the performance and emission characteristics of rubber seed oil methyl ester (ROME) - diesel blend with partial addition of butanol [ROME (40%) + Diesel (40%) + Butanol (20%)] in a single cylinder four stroke diesel engine at constant speed. Performance and emission characteristics of butanol added in ROME-diesel blend were compared with the characteristics of diesel-butanol blend [Diesel (80%) + Butanol (20%)] and diesel (100%), by varying the load on engine [n...

Performance and CombustionCharacteristics of Thermal Barrier Coated (YSZ) Low Heat Rejection Diesel Engine
Publication date: 2017 Source:Materials Today: Proceedings, Volume 4, Issue 2, Part A Author(s): Vikrant Garud, Sanjiwan Bhoite, Sagar Patil, Suraj Ghadage, Nilesh Gaikwad, Devesh Kute, G. Sivakumar Thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) were used to simulate adiabatic engines with the intention not only for reduced in-cylinder heat rejection and thermal fatigue protection of underlying metallic surfaces, but also for possible reduction of engine emissions. In this research work, the main emphasis is placed on investigating the effect of a TBC on the engine fuel consumption with the support of detailed sampling of in-cylinder pr...
