An Experimental Analysis on the Effects of Additives with Blends of Alternative Fuels on CI Engine Performance Using Modified Piston Geometry
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 17, Issue 2
Abstract
Around the world, there is a growing increase in biofuels consumption, mainly ethanol and biodiesel as well as their blends with diesel that reduce the cost impact of biofuels while retaining some of the advantages of the biofuels. The usage of additive is also predominant in the current era of auto motives. The inclusion of small amounts of chemical lead to improvement of many engine, combustion and emission characteristics. In this paper, the improvement in performance of engine is experimentally analyzed by considering four additives. These are 2-Ethylhexyl Nitrate, Octyl Nitrate, Isopropyl Nitrate and Di-Tert-Butyl Peroxide. These additives are added to two alternate fuel blends, one from Thurayi seed oil and other from Cuban royal palm seed oil. In addition to the investigation of these fuels in standard piston, two modified of piston configurations are considered the effect of additives is also inspected.
