Effect of EGR nanoparticles on performance and emission characteristics of a diesel engine fuelled with palm biodiesel and diesel blends

Arunkumar T., . and Munuswamy Dineshbabu, . and Devarajan Yuvarajan, . and Ganesan S., . and Appavu Prabhu., . Effect of EGR nanoparticles on performance and emission characteristics of a diesel engine fuelled with palm biodiesel and diesel blends. pp. 130-137. ISSN 1511-2780

This work examines the consequence of employing cerium oxide (CeO2) nanoparticles at a different proportion (30 ppm 60 ppm and 90 ppm) to palm oil methyl ester and diesel blends (B20) in water-cooled single cylinder four stroke diesel engine. Adding nanoparticles is a strategy to improve the performance and reduce emissions of the biodiesel. Prepared samples are fuelled to diesel engine by admitting exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) of 10 and 20 by volume. The main intention of this study is to lessen the nitrogen oxide (NOª) emissions for diesel and biodiesel blends. Experimental results found a significant reduction NOª carbon monoxide (CO) smoke and hydrocarbon (HC) emissions at 10 EGR rate. However brake specific fuel consumption is increased with significant lower brake thermal efficiency by admitting EGR of 20 by volume. Thus it can be inferred that EGR of 10 by volume is a optimal way on reducing harmful emissions without compromising much on performance aspects of biodiesel fuelled diesel engine.

Abstract

This work examines the consequence of employing cerium oxide (CeO2) nanoparticles at a different proportion (30 ppm 60 ppm and 90 ppm) to palm oil methyl ester and diesel blends (B20) in water-cooled single cylinder four stroke diesel engine. Adding nanoparticles is a strategy to improve the performance and reduce emissions of the biodiesel. Prepared samples are fuelled to diesel engine by admitting exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) of 10 and 20 by volume. The main intention of this study is to lessen the nitrogen oxide (NOª) emissions for diesel and biodiesel blends. Experimental results found a significant reduction NOª carbon monoxide (CO) smoke and hydrocarbon (HC) emissions at 10 EGR rate. However brake specific fuel consumption is increased with significant lower brake thermal efficiency by admitting EGR of 20 by volume. Thus it can be inferred that EGR of 10 by volume is a optimal way on reducing harmful emissions without compromising much on performance aspects of biodiesel fuelled diesel engine.
