Abstract:

It is very interesting to know about complete combustion in automobile engineering. Because in actual practice, perfect combustion is not at all possible due to various losses in the combustion chamber as well as design of the internal combustion engine. Moreover the process of burning of the fuel is also not instantaneous. However an alternate solution to it is by making the combustion of fuel as fast as possible. Titanium oxide coatings have applications as thermal barriers to improve the efficiency of the engine by reducing energy loss from the combustion chamber. The main aim of this work is o evaluate the effect of titanium oxide coating on diesel engine performance at different engine loads and speed. Experiments will be conducted with four stroke diesel engine. First, this engine was tested under different load and speed conditions without coating. Coating was done on the piston crown of the diesel engine. Titanium oxide layer were coated by using plasma coating method. The titanium oxide coated research engine was tested at the same conditions as standard engine. The results show a reduction in heat loss from cylinder, brake power and brake thermal efficiency increases and total fuel consumption.
