Abstract

In this experimental investigation compacts the performance and emissions of compression ignition engines fuelled with MgO nano additive, maducaindica bio diesel blends were examined. Based upon the previous literatures only 20% mahuca methyl ester fuel blends without nano additives is suitable for compression ignition engine without affecting engine efficiency and its characteristics. In this paper magnesium oxide nano additives are added into the 40% Mahucaindica biodiesel- diesel blends at the rate of 50ppm for developing the test fuels. In this nano additives improve the properties of diesel fuel like viscosity, calorific value and decreased the flash point and fire point. Then compared the performance and emissions differences of all blended fuels used as a fuel in a diesel engine. The observation of results, 40MgO + 50ppm blended fuels brake thermal efficiency is improved then CO, HC, CO2and smoke decreased compared to other fuel blends. The results are taken into account, a blend of 40MgO+ Mgo50ppm is the best blend ratio compared than other blends with nano additives.

Highlights

  • The world’s energy demand in the last two decades has encouraged the world towards searching for the alternative energy source

  • The objective of the present study aims to analysis the suitable fuel ratio of the Maducaindica oil biodiesel blend with use copper nano additives on the performance, emission and combustion characteristics of a compression ignition single cylinder diesel engine

  • The diesel fuel was replaced with the different Maducaindica methyl esterdiesel blends with nano additives and the test is conducted by varying the loads in the same manner

Summary

Introduction

The world’s energy demand in the last two decades has encouraged the world towards searching for the alternative energy source. We took Maducaindica oil biodiesel as an alternate fuel for diesel engine. Maducaindica oil is obtained from the seeds of Maducaindica, a deciduous tree which can grow in semi-arid, tropical and subtropical areas [7] It has an approximate annual production possible of 181 thousand metric tons in India [8]. Transesterification is widely used for industrial biodiesel production It gives better yield than other transesterified non edible oil [11]. Based on literature review and knowledge of authors no research yet studied Maducaindica methyl ester blends with nano additives as a fuel for diesel engine. The objective of the present study aims to analysis the suitable fuel ratio of the Maducaindica oil biodiesel blend with use copper nano additives on the performance, emission and combustion characteristics of a compression ignition single cylinder diesel engine
