Technical feasibility study of butanol–gasoline blends for powering medium-duty transportation spark ignition engine

Singh, Suraj Bhan; Dhar, Atul; Agarwal, Avinash Kumar - In: Renewable Energy 76 (2015) C, pp. 706-716

and 75% butanol–gasoline blends for evaluating their engine performance, emissions and combustion characteristics in a … these variations. Combustion characteristics of butanol–gasoline blends were evaluated for parameters such as in …-cylinder pressure history, heat release rate, rate of pressure rise, mass burn fractions and combustion duration. Overall, butanol …

Engine combustion, performance and emission characteristics of gas to liquid (GTL) fuels and its blends with diesel and bio-diesel

Sajjad, H.; Masjuki, H.H.; Varman, M.; Kalam, M.A.; … - In: Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews 30 (2014) C, pp. 961-986

Crude oil price hikes, energy security concerns and environmental drivers have turned the focus to alternative fuels. Gas to liquid (GTL) diesel is regarded as a promising alternative diesel fuel, considering the adeptness to use directly as a diesel fuel or in blends with petroleum-derived...

Analysis of operating a diesel engine on biodiesel-ethanol and biodiesel-methanol blends

Yilmaz, Nadir; Sanchez, Tomas M. - In: Energy 46 (2012) 1, pp. 126-129

In this work, standard diesel, neat biodiesel, biodiesel(85%)-methanol(15%) (B85M15) and biodiesel(85%)-ethanol(15%) (B85E15) fuels are tested. Experiments are carried out using a two-cylinder, 4-cycle, direct injected, water-cooled diesel engine at five loads between no load and a full load of...

Experimental investigations on the use of preheated animal fat as fuel in a compression ignition engine

Senthil Kumar, M.; Kerihuel, A.; Bellettre, J.; Tazerout, M. - In: Renewable Energy 30 (2005) 9, pp. 1443-1456

The effect of fuel inlet temperature on performance, emission and combustion characteristics of a diesel engine is … low temperature results in higher ignition delay and combustion duration than diesel. Preheated animal fat shows reduced … ignition delay and combustion duration. Peak pressure and rate of pressure rise are found as high with animal fat at high fuel …
