  • Abstract:
  • Increasing the consumption of fuel in power and automobile sector, increase the pollution of the environment. Smoke and NOX are main pollutants of emission from diesel engine and it is very difficult to control them simultaneously Petroleum based fuels is a finite resource that is rapidly depleting. Biodiesel is one of the alternative fuel made from vegetable oil, friendly for environment and has no effect on health and can reduce the emission compared with diesel fuel. The experiments are done in various stages and it covers the various aspects of biodiesels fuel derived from crude black sesame oil and performance emissions study on four stroke compression ignition engine. The obtained bio diesel fuel properties of SOEE are measured. Finally the optimum blend is selected as S20. After finding optimum blend, in the next stage tests are conducted on the same engine of optimum blend with air pre-heating at different temperatures to find out performance and emission parameters. In the end stage tests are conducted on the same engine of the optimum blend with supercharging at different pressures to find out performance and emission parameters. The performance and emission parameters measured from the above tests are to be compared with diesel base line data and optimum blend S20. The blend S20 with added air pre-heating showed best performances increase in brake thermal efficiency, decrease in BSFC and reductions in emissions CO, HC. However, its diesel blends with air pre-heating showed maximum brake thermal efficiency. Finally results shown engine performance and emissions have been to justify the potentiality of the ethyl esters of sesame oils of as alternative fuel for compression ignition engine fuel.
