The development of internal combustion engines is focused at solving problems like: fulfillment with increasingly stringent requirements regarding exhaust emissions and elimination of threats to the natural environment. The subject of this thesis is to assessment the impact of supplying a compression-ignition engine with hydrocarbon mixtures and to examine the impact of water on external parameters of the engine, such as smoke opacity. The tests were carried out using a innovative mixture of hydrated fusel oils, ethyl alcohol and ionic and/or non-ionic emulsifiers, from which was made of microemulsions with a water content in diesel oil of 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25%. The main tests were carried out on a 4-cylinder VW 1.9 TDI internal combustion engine at a constant engine crankshaft speed of 3000 rpm and variable load of 0, 30, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 Nm. The tests carried out showed a beneficial effect of the water content in the diesel oil on the reduction of the average value of smoke opacity, which systematically decreases with the increase in the percentage of water in the diesel oil.

“…This particular fuel has demonstrated its capacity to curtail diesel fuel consumption without imposing significant compromises on engine performance, simultaneously achieving reductions in NOx emissions, Particulate Matter (PM), and smoke emissions without necessitating extensive engine modifications [25]. Notably, until the present research initiative, the proportion of water admixed with diesel fuel had been investigated and found to be viable at levels reaching up to 30% [26]. This research aims to contribute to the evolving understanding of the optimal water-todiesel ratio in emulsion fuels, seeking to elucidate the intricate interplay between composition and combustion characteristics.…”

The research focuses on water diesel emulsion (WDE), a topic that has captivated researchers for an extended period. While previous studies predominantly employed surfactants to enhance mixing efficiency, their non-economic feasibility in transportation logistics has prompted a shift in recent investigations. This study presents experiments utilizing a cost-effective WDE comprising 15% water and a mixer devoid of surfactants to investigate the impact of mixer blade rotation on engine performance, fuel consumption, and NOx emissions. NOx emission tests were conducted under a constant engine speed of 2,000 rpm and a 75% load (3,23 kW). The optimal brake-specific fuel consumption (BSFC) for the 15% WDE fuel occurred at a blade rotation speed of 3,000 rpm, resulting in a 1% power reduction (from 4,41 kW to 4,38 kW), a 13.3% decrease in BSFC (from 694,98 gr/kW.h to 602,52 gr/kW.h), and a 30% reduction in NOx emissions (from 54 ppm to 38 ppm). This discovery holds promise for future advancements in green energy applications within the transportation sector.

“…Abd Razak et al 8 have developed a device for the production of (W/D) fuel to use in an industrial burner, where a high fuel consumption, flame temperature, and emission quality are achieved. While the comparison of fuel performances between D2 (Malaysian diesel), surfactant‐added W/D, and nonsurfactant W/D, it was found respective % reduction in fuel consumption, NO x , CO, HC, and particular matter emissions when the nonsurfactant W/D fuel is used.…”

The automotive sector is one of the top energy consumers globally compared with any other sector where oil plays the main role. According to http://statista.com (an online platform that displays the stats on oil consumption and reserves), in 2016, the demand for crude oil was about 85.3 million barrels per day worldwide. In 2019, the demand almost reached 100 barrels per day, and then it was reduced to 91 million per day during the 2020 global COVID‐19 crisis. However, it was predicted that the global crude oil requirements will exceed 100 million barrels per day by 2023 and will continue to raise. Also, geographically, not all countries worldwide have the oil reservoirs or the technology to extract oil from the reservoirs. Although the oil demand worldwide is increasing every year, researchers have estimated that there are only 47 years of oil left on the planet earth if the current oil consumption will raise this way. Researchers are looking for finding alternative fuels, such as electrochemical energy (electric vehicles), biodiesel, electricity, ethanol, hydrogen, natural gas, propane, emerging fuels, or the use of such fuels in the existing engines to minimize the use of nonrenewable energy resources. However, researchers are also looking more at fuels based on hybrid nanoparticles added to emulsified fuels. Due to the limitations of utilizing electrochemical energy or biofuels include high charging time, limited millage, harmful exhaust emissions, complicated production process, engine efficiency, the cost of fuel, and the advantages over hybrid nanoparticles added emulsified fuels than biofuels. Hence, after going through numerous researches, in this present experimentation, “hybrid nanoparticles (MgO and Al2O3) added water‐in‐diesel emulsion” are formulated to enhance the quality of emission and improve the performance of the compression ignition engine. The best combination of diesel, MgO, and Al2O3, a water‐in‐diesel (W/D) emulsion blend, is proposed. The results were further validated using deep neural network‐based spotted hyena optimization (DNN‐SHO) prediction and compared with traditional machine learning approaches artificial neural network (ANN), convolution neural network (CNN), regression‐based network (RBN), recurrent neural network (RNN), and DNN. As a result, the best proportions of the proposed nanoparticles added into the W/D bend are identified to be 10% W/D, 50 ppm of MgO, and 50 ppm of Al2O in terms of engine performance and emission characteristics brake thermal efficiency 30.7%, brake‐specific fuel consumption 0.29 kg/kW‐h, CO 0.027 vol%, NOx 855 ppm vol, and HC 12 ppm vol. Besides this, the DNN‐SHO‐based validated outcomes are in good agreement with the experimental values and outperformed other traditional approaches ANN, CNN, RBN, RNN, and DNN used in this study.
