Abstract

This project is presented in context of research project at GITAM University to understand and improve the performance of Diesel engine by using different Blends. Biodiesel was distinguished as a potential option to petrodiesel fuel since it has fuel properties as diesel. Utilization of consumable oils in biodiesel will creates foundations at raise of costs, yet couple of edible oils, for example rice bran oil have prohibitive heating conditions when contrasted with non-edible oil are accessible in a few nations such as soybean oil in USA. Inside this job, the performance examination of single chamber, 4-stroke, and water-cooled diesel engine was done utilizing rice bran oil methyl ester as biodiesel contrasting option to diesel fuel. Trial tests have been directed with scope of engine loads utilizing rice bran oil methyl ester (RBOME) and its diesel mixes with biodiesel in the proportion of B10, B20, B30 and B0 i.e., petrodiesel 100% by volume. In this exploration work, brake thermal efficiency (BTE), brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC), brake specific energy consumption (BSEC) and exhaust gas temperature (EGT) are considered as engine execution attributes. The examination revealed that B20 mix of biodiesel has similar brake thermal efficiency as diesel. B20 has most minimal and has most astounding BSFC, BSEC after all the biodiesel mixes. B20R has shown practically identical execution as diesel and it can be considered as other option to diesel fuel.
