Combustion Characteristics of Compression Ignition Engine Fuelled with Rme and Ethanol
نویسنده
چکیده
At the previous conference KONES’2004 emission characteristics of C.I. engine fuelled with either rape oil methyl ester (RME) or diesel fuel (DF) as a main fuel and ethanol as additional fuel were presented. Comparison of emission and brake fuel conversion efficiency (BFCF) of the engine fuelled with both main fuels showed that fuelling with RME and ethanol is more advantageous on account of both emission and efficiency than with DF and ethanol. In this paper combustion characteristics of the engine fuelled with RME and ethanol are presented and analysed. They enabled the insight into combustion processes of RME and ethanol resulting in better understanding influence of ethanol fraction in total fuel on emission and efficiency.

Exhaust Emission Analysis of an Internal Combustion Engine Fuelled with Hydrogen-Ethanol Dual Fuel
The work presented in this paper is an attempt to evaluate the exhaust emission characteristics of a hydrogen-ethanol dual fuel combination with different percents of hydrogen substitutions (i.e. 0-80 % by volume and of 20 % increment ) at three different compression ratios of 7:1, 9:1 and 11:1. Experimental investigations have been carried out on a computer interfaced with; four-stroke cycle, ...
متن کاملEffect of Injection Characteristics on Emissions and Combustion of a Gasoline Fuelled Partially-premixed Compression Ignition Engine
Conventional compression ignition (CI) engines are known for their high thermal efficiency compared to spark ignited (SI) engines. Gasoline because of its higher ignition delay has much lower soot emission in comparison with diesel fuel. Using double injection strategy reduces the maximum heat release rate that leads to NOx emission reduction. In this paper, a numerical study of a gasoline fuel...
متن کاملEffect of Initial Temperature and EGR on Combustion and Performance Characteristics of Homogenous Charge Compression Ignition Engine Fueled with Dimethyl Ether
Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) combustion is a pioneer method of combustion in which pre-mixed fuel and oxidizer (typically air) are compressed to the point of auto-ignition. HCCI engines can operate with most alternative fuels, especially, dimethyl ether (DME) which has been tested as a possible diesel fuel due to its simultaneously low NOx and PM emissions. In this paper a ...
