Study of Ethanol – Gasoline Blends for Powering Medium–Duty Transportation SI Engine

Abstract

As a lucrative fuel gasoline is widely consumed in country like India whose economy is very rapidly increasing. With the rapidly growing economy, demand is also going up sharply which is resulting in increased level of pollution and vehicular traffic. Amongst primary alcohol, ethanol is considered as the most promising alternative fuel candidate because of its quite similar chemical and physical properties with gasoline. Ethanol is completely miscible with gasoline in any proportion and forms a stable blend. Experiments are conducted on four cylinder engine to study the performance of the ethanol gasoline blended fuel. The ethanol is blended with 5%, 10%, 15%, 20% and 25% by volume with gasoline.
