Influence of NiFe2O4 and Zn0.5Ni0.5Fe2O4 nanoparticles on exhaust emissions of 4 stroke-6 cylinders turbocharged diesel engine

Abstract

Diesel vehicles have a huge role in the transportation of goods and people however they cause air pollutions. For this reason, researchers try to find alternative fuel additives to decrease the exhaust emissions. This experimental work focus on the impacts of oxygen content nanoparticle additives on exhaust emissions of 4 Stroke-6 cylinders turbocharged diesel engine fuelled with diesel fuel. Nickel iron oxide and nickel zinc iron oxide nanoparticles with the dosage of 15, 20 and 25 ppm were used as additives in the experimental tests. According to the results, the optimum dosage level of nanoparticles was found. As finally, the results revealed that the exhaust emission values were decreased with the nanoparticle addition to diesel fuel.
