Biodiesel is being considered a possible alternative fuel due to its similarity with diesel and environmental benefits. This current work involves numerical investigation of CI engine characteristics operating on D100 (diesel) Dunaliella tertiolecta (DMB20), Scenedesmus obliquus (SOMB20), dimorphu (SDMB20), Chlorella protothecoides (CMB20) microalgae biodiesel blend. A 3.7 kW was used variable ...

Nano-additives blended water-diesel emulsion fuel is the alternative fuel for compression ignition (CI) engine that reduce the NOx emission and at the same time increase the brake thermal efficiency due to combined effect of nanoparticles and micro explosion phenomenon of water diesel emulsion. This review paper addresses emulsion, emulsion types, micro-explosion phenomenon of water-diesel emul...

The necessity for decrease in consumption of conventional fuel, related energy and to promote the use of renewable sources such as biofuels, demands for the effective evaluation of the performance of engines based on laws of thermodynamics. Energy, exergy, entropy generation, mean gas temperature and exhaust gas temperature analysis of CI engine using diesel and karanja methyl ester blends at d...
