“…Another one is bioethanol and when used with biodiesel, it overcomes the negative effects of the latter, such as high CO emissions, high viscosity, and high cold filter plugging point. Biodiesel conversely also improves the low lubricity and cetane number issues of bioethanol [9]. The reason why it is preferable to use these fuels together is to eliminate the negative effects of each fuel.…”

Abstract:In this study, energy and exergy analysis were performed for a single cylinder, water-cooled diesel engine using biodiesel, diesel and bioethanol blends. Each experiment was performed at twelve different engine speeds between 1000 and 3000 rev/min at intervals of 200 rev/min for four different fuel blends. The fuel blends, prepared by mixing biodiesel and diesel in different proportions fuel with 5% bioethanol, are identified as D92B3E5 (92% diesel, 3% biodiesel and 5% bioethanol), D85B10E5 (85% diesel, 10% biodiesel and 5% bioethanol), D80B15E5(80% diesel, 15% biodiesel and 5% bioethanol) and D75B20E5 (75% diesel, 20% biodiesel and 5% bioethanol). The effect of blends on energy and exergy analysis was investigated for the different engine speeds and all the results were compared with effect of D100 reference fuel. The maximum thermal efficiencies obtained were 31.42% at 1500 rev/min for D100 and 31.42%, 28.68%, 28.1%, 28% and 27.18% at 1400 rev/min, respectively, for D92B3E5, D85B10E5, D80B15E5, D75B20E5. Maximum exergetic efficiencies were also obtained as 29.38%, 26.8%, 26.33%, 26.15% and 25.38%, respectively, for the abovementioned fuels. As a result of our analyses, it was determined that D100 fuel has a slightly higher thermal and exergetic efficiency than other fuel blends and all the results are quite close to each other.

“…Furthermore, specific fuel consumption of biodiesel blends is higher compared to that of diesel fuel and the oxygen content increases the oxidation in fuel-rich zones, which increases the number of combustion zones. The increase in the number of zones with high environmental temperature also increased the formation of NO x emissions [15].…”

Abstract-The aim of this study in diesel engines using fuel that can be produced with indigenous resources, renewable energy Camelina sativa biodiesel fuel, which is to investigate the use of the facilities. In recent years, both in the countries of the European Union, as well as the number of engine vehicles in Turkey diesel is increasing rapidly. Fossil fuels used in these engines work on the use of alternative energy sources are made. One of these alternative fuels, biodiesel. In this study, the use of fossil fuel diesel engines, which can be produced with indigenous resources, renewable energy Camelina biodiesel fuel, which was aimed to investigate the use of the facilities. In experiments diesel fuel and percent 20, 50 is used Camelina biodiesel blends. In experiments with common rail fuel system, turbocharged engine is used. Engine emissions of different fuel usage is examined.

“…The reason of this can be attributed to the oxygen content of the blend fuels which improve combustion efficiency and results in nearly the same engine torque output. Brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC) is one of the basic performance characteristics used for comparing the effects of different fuel on engine performance [2]. The variation of BSFC for test fuels is illustrated in Fig.…”

“…Biodiesel can be produced from edible and non-edible vegetable oils, animal fats and waste oils. Biodiesel is non-toxic, biodegradable and environmentally friendly fuel [2]. Hence, production and consumption of the biodiesel have increased day by day, over the world.…”

Abstract-This document presents an experimental study on performance and emissions of a single cylinder, direct injection CI engine fueled with corn oil methyl ester-diesel blends. The blend fuels contain corn oil methyl ester with ratios of 10% (B10), 20% (B20) and 50% (B50) on volume basis, respectively. Engine experiments were carried out an existing test unit for five different engine speeds at full throttle position. The results showed a reduction in engine torque and brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC) with increasing biodiesel percentage in the blend fuels except for B10. Blend fuels result in higher thermal efficiency than diesel fuel. The mean thermal efficiency of the engine by using diesel, B10, B20 and B50 were determined as 37.57%, 38.95%, 38.19% and 38.22%, respectively. Also, blend fuels gave less CO and O 2 emissions but higher NO x , HC and CO 2 emissions compared to diesel fuel. It was calculated that NO x emissions of B10, B20 and B50 were 16.25, 9.48 and 38.84% higher than diesel fuels, respectively.Index Terms-CI engine, corn oil methyl ester-diesel blends, engine performance, emissions.
