Performance and Emission Characteristics of S.I. Engine with Oxygenates
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 4
Abstract
In modern world transportations play a vital role, in that S.I. engines are the mostly preferred for their luxurious transportation. Alternative fuels are prepared to trim down the dependency of gasoline as a fuel and it is to increase the performance of the engine and to reduce the emission. In this study, effects of oxygenates one such di-isopropyl ether (DIPE) and isopropyl alcohol (IPA) were blended with-gasoline on different volume basis (10%, 20%, 30%) and tested for itsS.I. Engine, performance, and emission characteristics on a single cylinder four stroke spark ignition engine (petrol engine) and compared with normal gasoline. DIPE and IPA are selected for its similarities of properties with gasoline. The results has been tabulated and compared by plotting graphs. The mechanical efficiency of 10% DIPE is found to be 22% higher when compared to petrol, Emission are almost been reduced on higher loads.
