Abstract
ABSTRACTStringent emission regulations and health awareness about air pollution have led researchers to find alternative means of minimising emissions in diesel engines. In this article, the influence of oxygen enrichment is discussed to determine the effect on diesel engine performance, emission characteristics and combustion characteristics. Normal diesel and oxygen-enriched diesel are used in this experiment. The increase in oxygen concentration led to complete combustion, producing higher thermal efficiency and low harmful emissions. From the results, it is noted that oxygen-enriched diesel fuel showed reduction of CO, HC and smoke emissions, while NOx emission increased.Abbreviations/Nomenclature DI: direct injection; NOx: oxides of nitrogen; O2: oxygen; HC: hydrocarbon; PM: particulate matters; CO: carbon monoxide; CO2: carbon dioxide
