Performance and Emission Studies of a Naturally Aspirated Diesel Engine

International Journal of Automotive Engineering and Technologies

This study was compiled from the results of various researches performed on using diethyl ether as a fuel or fuel additive in diesel engines. Three different techniques have used the reduction of the harmful exhaust emissions of diesel engines. The first technique for the reduction of harmful emissions has improved the combustion by modification of engine design and fuel injection system, but this process is expensive and time-consuming. The second technique is the using various exhaust gas devices like catalytic converter and diesel particulate filter. However, the use of these devices affects negatively diesel engine performance. The final technique to reduce emissions and improve diesel engine performance is the use of various alternative fuels or fuel additives. The major pollutants of diesel engines are an oxide of nitrogen (NOx) and smoke or particulate matter (PM). It is very difficult to reduce NOx and PM simultaneously in practice. The most researches declare that the best way to reduce is the use of various alternative fuels i.e. natural gas, biogas, biodiesel or using additives with alternative fuels or conventional diesel fuel. Therefore, it is very important that the results of various studies on alternative fuels or fuel additives are evaluated together to practical applications. Especially, this study focuses on the use of diethyl ether in diesel engines as fuel or fuel additive in various diesel engine fuels. This review study investigates the effects of diethyl ether addition on the NOx emissions.

“…However, the addition of DEE to the BD40 blend results in reduced CO emission, which is due to more oxygen being available for combustion than BD40. At full load, DEE4 gives lower CO emission of about 45% compared with BD40 blend [107]. Variation of CO emissions for all test fuels with respect to brake power is illustrated in Fig.…”

“…16. Effect of diethyl ether additive on CO emissions of diesel-biodiesel blends [107] and biodiesel-ethanol blend [110] Numerical values about diethyl ether addition on CO emissions are tabulated in Table 2. The ethyl ether addition into various diesel engine fuels generally provides the decreases in CO emissions as seen in Table 2.…”

This study was compiled from the results of various researches performed on usage diethyl ether as a fuel or fuel additive in diesel engines. Three different methods have been used the reduction of the harmful exhaust emissions of diesel engines. The first technique for the reduction of harmful emissions has improved the combustion by modification of engine design and fuel injection system, but this process is expensive and time-consuming. The second technique is the using various exhaust gas devices like catalytic converter and diesel particulate filter. However, the use of these devices affects negatively diesel engine performance. The final technique to reduce emissions and improve diesel engine performance is the use of various alternative fuels or fuel additives. The major pollutants of internal combustion engines are carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbons (HC), nitrogen oxides (NOx), particulate matter (PM) and smoke. The most researches declare that the best way to reduce is the use of various alternative fuels i.e. natural gas, biogas, biodiesel or using additives with alternative fuels or conventional fuels. Therefore, it is very important that the results of various studies on alternative fuels or fuel additives are evaluated together to practical applications.

This review study investigates the effects of diethyl ether additive on the CO emissions.

“…Beyond 2 %, the addition of DEE increased the BSEC of the blend over that of diesel and BD40. The reason might be the higher latent heat of vaporization of DEE that absorbed the heat of combustion . Venu and Madhavan declared that DEE addition in biodiesel‐ethanol (BD40E20) blend resulted in reduced blend viscosity and caused improvement in shape of fuel spray and atomization.…”
