Abstract

In this experimental investigation, performance and emission parameters of a single cylinder water cooled diesel engineat various load conditions has been studied. Theengine tests have been carried out by using Diesel, Biodiesel blends(B10,B20,B30) and adding additive Di MethylCarbonate(DMC)tothe best biodiesel blend B20 in various proportionsi.e(B20+500mg,B20+1000mg,B20+1500mg).Brake thermal efficiency of diesel is 29.1% at 2.31kW BP and 28.5% at 2.88kW BP where as brake thermal efficiency of B20+1000mg additive shows closer value to diesel because of better combustion of fueli.e 28.6% at 2.31kW BP and 27.6% at 2.88kW BP. The brake specific fuel consumption decreases for B20+1000mg compared to that of B20blend and its value is closer to that of diesel. Result shows thatCO, HC, and NOX decreases with adding additive to biodiesel blends.Performance and emission analysisare satisfactory with all the test fuels.Therefore this paper provides a good future scope to use thisbiodiesel fuel in C.I engine without any engine modifications.
