, and 0.01-0.5% of nanometer additives, wherein the emulsifying agents are non-ion type surfactants, the nanometer additives are non-metal nanometer particles, and the emulsifying agents and the nanometer additives are both in favor of the improvement of the combustion efficiency of the fuel. ...
Effect of a narrow fuel spray angle and a dual injection configuration on the improvement of exhaust emissions in a HCCI diesel engine The aim of this work was to investigate the effect of narrow fuel spray angle injection and dual injection strategy on the exhaust emissions of a common-ra.....
The specific fuel consumption results were somewhat surprising, giving hope to the biodiesel use. One must consider the fact that these tests were made on engines that have been developed to get a bigger efficiency out of diesel and not biodiesel. There is still a long way to go in order ...
readily implemented alternative to conventional diesel fuel8,9,10. Besides being sustainable, renewable11, nontoxic, biodegradable12, carbon–neutral, and safe to handle, biodiesel produces low emissions throughout its life cycle as an esterification product of vegetable oil and methanol6,13,14. As ...
As per the performance fronts, specific fuel consumption improved with improvement in brake thermal efficiency for Pongamia biodiesel with 50 and 100 ppm TiO2 nanoparticle. The TiO2 nanoparticle inclusion at different ppm significantly increases the peak pressure and the net heat release rate values for...
The study showed a reduction in HC, smoke, NOx, and CO emissions, as well as an improvement in fuel consumption and thermal efficiency. The presence of TiO2 increases peak pressure and heat release rate, which makes Pongamia biodiesel with TiO2 a viable alternative for diesel engines [32]. ...
11) reveal that although the energy content of the fuel is lowered with biodiesel, the combustion efficiency as determined by the relative accumulated ROHR results shows that the level of release heat (or output) is increased. It is important to note that this benefit in performance can only ...
Biodiesel is a sustainable alternative to petroleum diesel. The main bottlenecks in the commercialization of biodiesel are production costs and suitable in

Hydrogen operation has generally been found to provide the best thermal efficiency compared to normal CI engine operation. Higher maximum CP values were obtained with hydrogen dual-fuel operation compared to normal CI engine operation. Santhosh and Kumar [38], investigated the effects of hydrogen and...
