“…The emissions like CO and HC recorded lower values for all the blends of punnai relative to standard diesel, whereas the emission of NO X was greater for all the test fuels. Rangabashiam et al [11] conducted researches on using neem biodiesel in direct injection (DI) diesel engine. They showed that increasing biodiesel leads to a reduction in performance.…”

In this study, the nano biochar derived from sugarcane was added with custard seed biodiesel (CBD) at different concentrations of 25 and 50 ppm to assist the emission and performance pattern of a compression ignition engine. The study monitored harmful gases, namely, hydrocarbon (HC), carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxide (NO), and smoke as emission parameters and investigated brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC) and brake thermal efficiency (BTE) as performance parameters are analyzed at diverse loads by altering the concentration the biochar with CBD and compared with diesel. Experimental results revealed that the biochar addition at 50 ppm to CBD reduced smoke emission by 1.9%, CO by 0.005%, and HC by 6 ppm at all top load conditions with 71 ppm higher NO. Further, biochar addition at 50 ppm to CBD enhances the brake thermal efficiency by 0.7% and lower brake specific fuel consumption by 0.4 kg/kWh.

“…Superior HRR was noticed to diesel than MSBD and MSBD with H 2 . Better-quality properties and higher heating value of diesel result in higher HRR than BD and H 2 blends. − HRR for MSBD is the least among fuels. However, the H 2 induction to MSBD enhances the HRR.…”

This study aims to examine the ignition pattern of CI engines run by nonedible mango seed biodiesel (MSBD). This work is also aimed to improve the ignition pattern of diesel engines by inducing hydrogen as a dual fuel in the intake manifold at various mass flow rates of 5 and 10 L per minute (lpm). Various parameters were calculated with varying intake hydrogen rates with MSBD and compared with diesel. Results concluded that the hydrogen supply at 10 lpm improved peak pressure by 3.22 bar, heat release rate (HRR) by 5.47 J/°C A, and brake thermal efficiency (BTE) by 3.4% of MSBD. Further, hydrogen supply also reduced overall HC by 0.36 g/ kWh, CO by 3.9 g/kWh, and smoke emission by 3.8 Bosch smoke unit (BSU) at all brake mean effective pressures (BMEPs) from neat MSBD with a 3.3 g/kWh increase in NO. Further, this research work reveals that hydrogen addition at 10 lpm with MSBD shall improve the ignition patterns of a diesel engine.

“…The systematic methods for computing error estimates for experimental data are part of uncertainty analysis. , It is typically believed that data are collected under fixed (known) conditions and that comprehensive information of all system components is available when evaluating errors in heat engine studies. , Bias errors and precision (or random) errors are two general categories for measurement errors, which can come from a variety of causes. Over the course of a series of measurements, bias errors are constant …”

In this experimental investigation, Kariba weed biodiesel (KSB) blended with n-pentane has been tested in conventional and ceramic-coated thermal barrier engines, and the results have been compiled and presented. A single-cylinder, four-stroke, direct injection diesel engine has been used as the test engine with eddy current dynamometer loading as used in the experimental setup. The tests were repeated in various ambient conditions to get an optimal value. Ceramic coating has been done with partially stabilized zirconia by the plasma arc spraying process. Among the quantum of tests conducted, 90% KSB blended with 10% n-pentane showed appreciable results when it was compared with the test fuel (neat diesel). The brake thermal efficiency and brake-specific fuel consumption were found to be better when compared with neat diesel. At increasing load, unburnt hydrocarbon, carbon monoxide, and smoke opacity emissions were appreciably reduced.
