Hexanol-Ethanol Diesel Blends on DI-Diesel Engine to Study the Combustion and Emission
نویسنده
چکیده
Hexanol was added in ethanol – diesel fuel to prevent separation of ethanol from diesel in this study. The ethanol blend proportion can be increased upto 45% in volume by adding the Hexanol. Engine performance and emissions characteristics of the fuel blends were investigated on a diesel engine and compared with diesel fuel. Experimental results show smoke emission decreases significantly with the increase of oxygen content in the fuel. When blended fuels are used, nitrogen oxides (NOx) emission is almost the same as or slightly higher than the NOx emission when diesel fuel is used. Cylinder pressure and Heat release are slightly increased when the engine was fueled with ethanol – Hexanol – diesel blends. Hexanol – ethanol diesel blended fuel slightly improves the performance of the engine.
