Performance and Emission Analysis of Single Cylinder Diesel Engine under the influence of Magnetic Fuel Energizer

Abstract

The present study about the experimental investigates on the Performance and Emission of Single Cylinder Four Stroke Diesel engine under the influence of magnetic field. The influence of magnetic field on the engine performance parameters such as specific fuel consumption, break thermal efficiency, exhausts emissions etc. by applying the magnetic field along the fuel line immediately before fuel injector. The strong permanent magnet of strength 9000 gauss is applied to fuel line for magnetic field. At different engine load conditions the experiments are conducted. An exhaust gas analyzer is used to measure the exhaust gas emissions such as CO, CO2, HC and NOX. With the application of magnetic field the percentage reduction in fuel consumption is about 8% at higher load, the percentage reduction in HC and NOX is about 32% and 27 % respectively. The CO emission gets reduced with the application of magnetic field at higher load. The percentage reduction in CO2 emissions is reduced about 11% at average of all loads with the effect of magnetic field.
