APPLICATION OF BLEND FUEL ON SOUND EMISSION AND EXHAUST GAS TEMPERATURE IN SINGLE CYLINDER DIESEL ENGINE

Abstract

Blend fuel is one of the substitute oils for CI engines which are familiar for instantaneous decrease of lubricant oil debris and sound emissions. However, a very small portion of research work was carried out to study the outcome of blend fuel utilization. In this experimental work, two types of blend fuels DF95WCO5 and DF65WCO20Pe15 were selected and compared with diesel fuel. Noise emission is one of the most essential parameter that is affected by fuel used. Fuel blends containing n-pentanol, waste cooking oil, and diesel have gained popularity as a substitute ternary blend for CI engines. Rare investigations on n-pentanol blends have been reported; yet the reduction in noise emission could be significant. In this research, experimental work, deals with the characteristic work on exhaust gas temperature for petroleum diesel blend with waste cooking oil DF95WCO5 as binary and ternary n-pentanol in the proportion of DF65WCO20Pe15. The trials were performed on a single-cylinder water-cooled four-stroke compression-ignition (CI) engine to analyze the abovementioned impact. However, DF65WCO20Pe15 produced some better results when compared to DF. The outcomes coming from the test fuels revealed that the ternary blend DF65WCO20Pe15 of n-pentanol to diesel has caused to reducing the exhaust gas temperature in difference to the petroleum diesel. It is to be observed that the n-pentanol ought to be used as a partial substitute for diesel fuel in the CI engine applications according to the research consequences.
