A Comparative Study of Ethanol and Methanol Addition Effects on Engine Performance, Combustion and Emissions in the SI Engine

Abstract: In this study, the availability of methanol instead of ethanol was investigated in terms of performance, emission and combustion characteristics. The experiments were conducted in a single cylinder, four-stroke SI engine for different engine speeds at full engine load. Test fuels were prepared by 10% ethanol and methanol addition into gasoline. According to the experimental results, while methanol addition increased bsfc values by 10.3% compared to ethanol addition, it caused a reduction to the bte values by 6… Show more

“…Humanity faces three major challenges in terms of road mobility today: (1) greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and global warming; (2) renewable or sustainable forms of energy; and (3) energy security [1]. This led to an EU target of at least 40% domestic reduction in GHG emissions by 2030 compared to 1990, which the European Council agreed to in October 2014 [2], [3]. As the world's population grows, so does the need for fuel in all of its forms.…”

“…Yakın gelecekte fosil yakıtların tükenme eşiğine gelmesi beklenmektedir [8,9]. Bu sebeplerden dolayı araçların enerji verimliliği konusu önemli bir seviyeye ulaşmıştır [10][11][12][13]. Otomotiv sektöründe geleneksel araçlar üzerindeki enerji verimliliğinin arttırılması ve emisyon değerlerinin azaltılmasına yönelik ciddi araştırmalar yapılmaktadır.…”
