This research article intends to discuss on the role and effects of dispersing solution combustion derived magnesia nanoflakes (~17 nm) within biodiesel-diesel blends pure diesel termed as nanofuels, in order investigate functional pollutant emissions a single-cylinder, electrically loaded, water-cooled engine. The fuels focussed this study are blend palm oil biodiesel regular dispersed with 50...

Understanding the combustion characteristics of fuel droplets laden with energetic nanoparticles (NP) is pivotal for lowering ignition delay, reducing pollutant emissions and increasing the combustion efficiency in next generation combustors. In this study, first we elucidate the feedback coupling between two key interacting mechanisms, namely, secondary atomization and particle agglomeration; ...

Abstract In recent years, the application of nanoadditives in biofuels is gaining much attention due to their increase thermophysical properties such as high surface area, thermal conductivity, and mass diffusivity. However, lack stability, additive cost, difficult recovery from engine exhaust are high-priority demanding characteristics, which may be chosen by many researchers. this regard, mos...

The potential for nanofuels as one of the clean sources of energy on account of its enhanced combustion performance coupled with low emissions has been established. Considering the importance of the fuel evaporation phase in the entire combustion process, this work presents an attempt at applying the steady state analysis equations to nanofuel experimental data obtained from the li...
