Abstract
In Today’s Environment usage of fossil fuels such as Petrol, Diesel etc., are increasing tremendously day by day. But the Resources are limited. Identification and Exploring of these fossil fuels from Earth’s crust are very expensive and at the same time these resources are limited and depleting day by day besides causing environmental pollution in the form of emissions such as CO, CO2, HC etc., Bio-Fuels are the alternative source in the vicinity that can be used as a substitute for fossil fuel or as a fuel additive to petrol or diesel engines. The main focus of this thesis is to find the performance and Emission analysis of Eucalyptus Oil blended with Petrol as a fuel additive on Four Stroke Single Cylinder Engine with Eddy Current Dynamo meter. The Experiment was conducted with different proportions of Eucalyptus Oil and petrol by volume i.e. EU10, EU20, EU30, EU40. Emission Analysis was conducted using Orsat Gas Analysis Apparatus (Fischer Type). Petrol and Eucalyptus Oil blends showed an improvement in the Brake Power, Brake Thermal Efficiency and Low Brake Specific Fuel Consumption reduced CO, CO2, HC, NOx levels of Exhaust Emissions.
