Abstract

Using the AVL BOOST 2016 Simulations, the effects of biodiesel B30 (30% biodiesel + 70% diesel volume) on diesel engine performance, combustion, and emissions were studied. Simulated cases for diesel fuels and B30 biodiesel were compared to experimental results at full load at 1250, 1500, and 1750 rpm. Biodiesel B30 reduces power and effective torque, according the findings of various fuel parameters. Biodiesel B30 includes more oxygen, which aids in proper oxidation in the combustion chamber and reduces carbon monoxide levels. Once compared to diesel, biodiesel raised brake-specific fuel usage by 5%. When comparing Pure Diesel to B30, NOx emissions increased marginally, reaching 2.57 percent.
