Use of an Engine Cycle Simulation to Study a Biodiesel Fueled Engine. (August 2009) Junnian Zheng, B.A., Shanghai Jiaotong University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Jerald A. Caton Based on the GT-Power software, an engine cycle simulation for a biodiesel fueled direct injection compression ignition engine was developed and used to study its performance and emission characteristics. The major...

In the present study, water electrolysis was employed for Hydroxy gas (HHO) production as a gaseous additive. The engine test performed using Diesel, B5, and B20 pilot fuels. HHO imported into engine's combustion chamber at three volumetric flow rates of 3, 4, 5 cc/s through inlet manifold low-level rate.The setup single-cylinder dual-fueled diesel constant speed (1500 rpm) full load condition....

Turbochargers have evolved with the advancement of engine technology. In this study, we pro-posed a concept joint operation, based on operating characteristics compressor and turbine. Furthermore, turbine evaluation method was proposed concept, an optimization application study impeller blade number casing con-ducted verified. The results showed that performance point could predict trend more a...

The prevailing massive exploitation of conventional fuels has staked the energy accessibility to future generations. gloomy peril inflated demand and depleting fuel reservoirs in sector supposedly instigated urgent need for reliable alternative fuels. These very issues have been addressed by introducing oxyhydrogen gas (HHO) compression ignition (CI) engines various flow rates with diesel asses...

In this study, the effect of a thermal barrier coating with yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) and aluminum silicate (Al2O3·SiO2) alongside an NiCrAl bond coat on engine performance emission analysis was evaluated by using conventional diesel pure palm oil biodiesel. These materials were coated piston alloy via plasma spray coating. The findings demonstrated that YSZ presented better performances...

This paper investigates impact of magnetite dispersed in butanol and added to two varied blends palm biodiesel diesel (B20 B30). The developed fuel samples were characterized tested on single cylinder Yanmar engine (L70N) observe behavior for emissions performance. Results are compared with reference fuels: YF50 contains 50 ppm B20 Bn10Y90 10% 90% B20. Addition depletes levels improve performan...

The major aim of the research is to investigate ability biogas as an alternative fuel for gasoline-powered Spark Ignition (SI) engine. In this study, biogas/gasoline mixtures containing different ratios biogas, gasoline, and were tested in SI engine with increased compression ratio at loads constant speed. According comparison utilization generally decreased Brake Thermal Efficiency (BTE), whil...
