Abstract

In day-to-day life, fossil fuels play an important role in transportation and power generation. The consumption of fossil fuels increasing rapidly with increase in emission from engines. Due to habituation over fossil fuel, both the economy and environment are suffering. The researchers are in the position to find the best alternative for fossil fuels. The employment of biodiesel is taken to be the classy replacement for this snag. According to scores of research, using additions of nanoparticle is the greatest way to control emissions and improve engine performance. Here the assessment was employed though rice bran (RB) oil, rice bran oil blended with aluminum oxide (RB Al2O3), and rice bran oil blended with cerium oxide (RB CeO2). Rice bran oil is extracted and converted into biodiesel by transesterification process. And the nanoadditives are prepared using the two-step method. The addition of nanoadditives showed an improved performance in the engine as well as emission parameters. The congruent assessment clearly demonstrates the improvement of brake thermal efficiency by around 28% for RB-Al2O3 and an improved brake-specific fuel of 16%. Both the blends exhibit good part loading traits.

纳米添加剂改善米糠燃油内燃机性能及排放特性

在日常生活中，化石燃料在交通运输和发电方面发挥着重要作用。化石燃料的消耗随着发动机排放的增加而迅速增加。由于对化石燃料的习惯，经济和环境都受到了影响。研究人员能够找到化石燃料的最佳替代品。生物柴油的使用被认为是解决这一问题的好办法。根据大量的研究，使用纳米颗粒的添加剂是控制排放和提高发动机性能的最好方法。本文采用米糠(RB)油、米糠油与氧化铝(RB Al2O3)混合、米糠油与氧化铈(RB CeO2)混合进行评价。以米糠油为原料，通过酯交换反应制备生物柴油。采用两步法制备了纳米添加剂。纳米添加剂的加入改善了发动机的性能和排放参数。一致性评估清楚地表明，RB-Al2O3的制动热效率提高了28%左右，制动专用燃料的效率提高了16%。两种共混物均表现出良好的部分载荷特性。
