Modeling and analysis of diesel engine with addition of hydrogen-hydrogen-oxygen gas

“…As this tool is 1-D simulation tool, the time frame required for the simulation is negligible. Thus it reduces time and cost involved and helps to predict results with fair accuracy [10]. The dual fuel capabilities of the diesel engine will reduce the dependency on fossil fuels [11,12].…”

Impact of catalytically cracked jatropha oil using CeO2 and SiO2 as catalysts on DI diesel engine performance and emission characteristics

“…The uncertainty analysis was performed based on the list of measurement uncertainties of various equipment's used in this study are shown in tab. 3 and the total uncertainty was found to be ±2.79% [1]. Table 2.…”

“…Energy is one of the basic requirements for economic development of a country. The consumption of energy has been increased day by day and becoming more dependent on depleting fossil fuels in the world [1,2]. Rising cost of fossil fuels and related environmental issues pose greater threat to sustained economic development.…”
