In this study, the authors have tried to compare the stability behaviour of water emulsified diesel (WED) prepared by mechanical homogenizer and ultrasonicator. Both types of emulsion have been prepared by adding 10% water and 2% surfactant mixture of Span 80 and Tween 80. The emulsion prepared...

This research focuses on the diesel and diesel/oil mixed fuel combustion particles as the research object and analyzes the characteristics of the two kinds of fuel oil under different parameters. The characteristics of the combustion particulate matter in the DPF discharge of the two fuels...

Experimental investigation was carried out to study the combustion, engine performance and emission characteristics of a single cylinder, naturally aspirated, air cooled, constant speed compression ignition engine, fuelled with two modified fuel blends, B20 (Diesel–soybean biodiesel) and...

A naturally aspirated multi cylinder diesel genset (DG) was operated successfully with mixed fuels (fossil-diesel (FD), refined rice bran oil (RRBO) and producer gas from a wood gasifier). Performance of DG set in FD, dual fuel mode (FD+RRBO in different proportion and FD+producer gas) and mixed...

An atmospheric diffusion oxy-combustion flame in a gas turbine model combustor has been investigated experimentally and numerically. Oxy-combustion and emission characterization, flame stabilization and oxy-combustion model validation analyses are the main goals of the present research work. The...

Biodiesel, produced by enzymatic transesterification of cottonseed oil with methanol in a green, zero waste discharge process, was purified to meet the international specifications. Glycerol was recovered by gravity separation and unutilized methanol was recycled after distillation. The methyl...
