The piston ring assembly is one of the key parts of internal combustion engine. Its performance decides engine power loss to over come friction force and determines the performance of the whole engine. As per the literature review it is reported 40 to 50 % of the total mechanical friction losses in piston ring cylinder wall interface. The present work mainly focused on study of basic tribologic...

the objective of this work was to develop a new design of an intake manifold through a 1d simulation. it is quite familiar that a duly designed intake manifold is essential for the optimal performance of an internal combustion engine. air flow inside the intake manifold is one of the important factors, which governs the engine performance and emissions. hence the flow phenomenon inside the inta...

Due to diminishing petroleum reserves and the environmental negative effects of exhaust gases from diesel engines, alternative fuels for diesel engines are becoming increasingly important Egyptian waste cooking oils have special specifications because it expose to high temperatures during use for long hours. In the present experimental study, the performance and emissions of a four strokes, sin...

To study the feasibility of using two edible plant oils as diesel substitute a comparative study was made. Oils were exacted from the seeds of soyabean (Glycine Max, Family: Leguminoceae) and sunflower(Helianthus annuus, Family: Asteraceae/Compositeae). Oils were esterified (butyl esters) before blending with pure diesel in the ratio of 10:90, 15:85, 20:80, and 25:75 by volume. Pure diesel was ...

global air pollution is a serious threat caused by excessive use of fossil fuels for transportation. despite the fact that diesel fuel is a big environmental pollutant as it contains different hydrocarbons, sulphur and crude oil residues, it is yet regarded as a highly critical fuel due to its wide applications. nowadays, biodiesel as a renewable additive is blended with diesel fuel to achieve ...

This paper investigates the opportunity of using almond oil as a renewable and alternative fuel source. Different fuel blends containing 10, 30, and 50% almond biodiesel (B10, B30, and B50) with diesel fuel (B0) were prepared and the influence of these blends on emissions and some performance parameters under various load conditions were inspected using a diesel engine. Measured engine performa...

This research work depends on enhancing the execution of the diesel engine when they utilized bio diesel oil as an optional fuel without real alteration of engine design. It is also required to grow non edible feed stocks in the waste or marginal land of Gujarat. Work goal is to recognize best suitable Bio-Diesel mix by keeping numerous parameters on it. Bio-Diesel mixes will be given credit sc...

In this study, fuzzy expert system (FES) was designed by using Matlab software for determination of performance and emission characteristics of a gasoline engine which is Briggs and Stratton Vanguard trademark, a cylinder, cylinder volume 182 cm. In the designed FES, intake valve opening advance (advance-) and engine speed (nd/d) were determined as input parameters whereas torque (Me-Nm), power...

The experimental study was conducted to investigate the effects of different opening ranges of waste gate of a turbocharged medium displacement spark ignition engine on improving work parameters such as exhaust emission, torque characteristics and fuel consumption. The object of the experimental tests was an engine with modified intake and exhaust manifolds. The intake and exhaust manifold modi...

according to the global fuel crisis, it seems necessary to use alternative fuel instead of gasoline. since the natural gas is cheaper, have higher frequency than gasoline and less pollution, it is a suitable fuel. many efforts have been done in order to replace gasoline with natural gas. one of the methods is to inject natural gas and gasoline fuel simultaneously and to use the benefits of both...
