Abstract:
This study is to determine the effect of the Ethanol as cetane number improves on combustion characteristics and pollutants of diesel engine fuelled by preheated biodiesel-diesel blend. A bench test is to be carried out on a four cylinder direct injection diesel engine aiming to study the variation of thermal efficiency, exhaust temperature and pollutant at different engine operating conditions.There are three blends chosen to be tested in the engine. It includes preheated B10 (900 ml diesel+100 ml Biodiesel), preheated B20 (800 ml diesel+200 ml biodiesel) and preheated B20E10 (700 ml diesel+200 ml biodiesel+100 ml ethanol). Hydrocarbon, CO2, NOx, emission characteristics are also studied in this paper with different blends of fuel.
