摘要:This study investigates the effect of biodiesel namely 20MOME (80%diesel+20%mahua oil methyl ester) on a kirloskar, single cylinder, direct injection diesel engine. Performance and emission characteristics like break thermal efficiency, exhaust gas temperature; Carbon monoxide (CO), unburned hydrocarbon (UBHC) and oxides of nitrogen (NO x ) emissions were determined for 20MOME and compared with diesel fuel. The results showed that the engine performance under biodiesel blends were similar to that of neat diesel fuel with nearly the same brake thermal efficiency, and slightly higher fuel consumption. The carbon monoxide and hydrocarbon emissions decreased significantly compared to neat diesel fuel whereas the oxides of nitrogen increased.
