Effect of Methylester and Diesel Blends on Engine Evaluation in Real World Driving Conditions
Main Article Content
Abstract
In this current world, due to the rise in fuel demand, awareness has grown about producing biofuel from vegetables oil. Present work, the synthesis of kapok methyl ester by using the transesterification process was partially used with diesel in the internal combustion engine. Tests was conducted at compression ratio 19 for estimating the performance and exhaust characteristics. This comparative result analysis was performed on various biodiesel blends. This result showed that KME20 exhibited a 6.1% reduction in fuel consumption and a reasonable rise in thermal efficiency compared to neat kapok biodiesel. KME20 blend noticed reduced UBHC and CO emissions as compared to diesel. KME20 was 6.9%, 7.5% and 6.75% lowered by UBHC, CO and smoke emissions as compared to standard fuel. Due to the fact that high peak cycle temperature and sufficient oxygen, NOX was dramatically raised by kapok blends.
