Abstract

Fuels derived from biomass are mostly preferred as alternative fuels for IC engines as they are abundantly available and renewable in nature. The objective of the study is to identify the parameters that influence gross indicated fuel conversion efficiency and how they are affected by the use of biodiesel relative to petroleum diesel. Important physicochemical properties of palm kernel oil and eucalyptus blend were experimentally evaluated and found within acceptable limits of relevant standards. As most of vegetable oils are edible, growing concern for trying nonedible and waste fats as alternative to petrodiesel has emerged. In present study diesel fuel is completely replaced by biofuels, namely, methyl ester of palm kernel oil and eucalyptus oil in various blends. Different blends of palm kernel oil and eucalyptus oil are prepared on volume basis and used as operating fuel in single cylinder 4-stroke variable compression ratio diesel engine. Performance and emission characteristics of these blends are studied by varying the compression ratio. In the present experiment methyl ester extracted from palm kernel oil is considered as ignition improver and eucalyptus oil is considered as the fuel. The blends taken are PKE05 (palm kernel oil 95
桉树棕榈仁油混合物:在一个4冲程VCR柴油发动机完全消除柴油
来自生物质的燃料大多首选作为内燃机的替代燃料,因为它们在本质上是丰富的和可再生的。本研究的目的是确定影响总指示燃料转换效率的参数,以及相对于石油柴油,使用生物柴油如何影响这些参数。实验评估了棕榈仁油和桉树混合物的重要理化性质,发现它们在相关标准的可接受范围内。由于大多数植物油都是可食用的,因此越来越多的人开始关注将非食用脂肪和废脂肪作为石油柴油的替代品。在目前的研究中,柴油燃料完全被生物燃料所取代,即棕榈仁油和桉树油的甲酯在各种混合物中。将棕榈仁油和桉树油按体积配制成不同的混合物,作为单缸四冲程变压缩比柴油机的运行燃料。通过改变压缩比,研究了这些共混物的性能和排放特性。本实验以棕榈仁油中提取的甲酯为助燃剂,以桉树油为燃料。所取共混物为PKE05(棕榈仁油95)
