Abstract


In the fast growing world of automobiles, the demand for petroleum products is increasing day by day. Many of renewable energies are used to full fill that demand. One of the best alternatives is the use of biodiesel. In this study a dual fuel blend with pure diesel in a single cylinder direct injection constant speed diesel engine was analyzed by varying the power outputs with different proportions of the fuel blends. In the dual fuel operation, the rubber seed oil and jatropha oil blends with diesel. The proportions of 20% and 40% blend have been investigated on volume basis. In this dual fuel operation is observed that they have higher emission of hydrocarbon (HC) and carbon monoxide (CO) emissions than the ester, diesel blend. The ignition delay was reduced using dual fuel blend with diesel and efficiencies were improved. The proportion, B20 (20% of biodiesel) is gives the optimum efficiency with low emission.
