STUDY THE EFFECT OF BLENDING KEROSENE WITH DIESEL FUEL ON THE PERFORMANCE AND EMISSIONS OF DIESEL ENGINE
Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering Sciences & Research Technology - Year 0, Vol 4, Issue 8
Abstract
An Experimental study was conducted to enaluate the effect of blending kerosene (by different volume) with diesel fuel on the performance and emissions of a single cylinder 4-stroke air cooled DI diesel engine running at fixed speed with different loads (torques). Two levels of blend 10% and 20% of kerosene blending by volume with diesel fuel were named K10 and K20 respectively, while pure diesel was considered as a baseline and named D. The treatments include engine speed that was running at constant speed 1500 rpm, with three levels of load (torque) 2, 6 and 10 N.m and three types of fuels D, K10 and K20 . Performance parameters that were studied involve brake specific fuel consumption, brake thermal efficiency and exhaust temperature. Furthermore, the exhaust emissions were analyzed to find the effect of selected blends on nitrogen oxides (NOx) and carbon dioxide (CO2).emissions. Results showed that the bsfc has been reduced by 14.1% and 20.1% when engine fueled with K10 and K20 respectively at low load compared with pure diesel. Exhaust gas temperature, BTE, CO2 and NOx concentration have been increased when engine fueled with K10 and K20 instead of diesel fuel(D).These results indicted the possibility of using blending kerosene (by 10% and 20% by volume )with diesel fuel without any modification in the engine
