Experimental Investigation in Performance Evaluation of Nano Additives Diesel Blend using Diesel Engine
Main Article Content
Abstract
The use of petrol and diesel engines is very high. But the environment is also polluted according to its use. Currently many researches are being carried out to reduce the pollutions in engines such as by the addition of nano particles and other seed oils. This research is carried out to study the effect of nanoparticles combined with diesel to increase efficiency and also to reduce emissions. The use of nanoparticles can increase engine performance and reduces emissions. A single-cylinder four stroke vertical diesel engine is used to inspect the nanoparticles. The additives used in the researches are zinc oxide nanoparticles and cobalt oxide nano particles. Zinc oxide (ZnO) and cobalt oxide (Co3O4) were mixed with diesel fuel from 5 to 8 ppm ratio. Better value of brake thermal efficiency was obtained at D + 7ppm.
