Abstract

This paper investigates the performance and emission analyses of a turbo-charged diesel engine fuelled with pre-mixed and post-mixed hybrid biodiesel blends at varying load condition thereby maintaining injection timing, injection pressure and speed constant at 230bTDC, 220 bar and 1500 RPM. The experimental result depicted that post-mixed biodiesel blends (POBD 20) showed higher brake specific energy consumption and exhaust gas temperature by 4.6% and 2.02% than that of diesel while brake thermal efficiency was reduced by 5.68%. However, engine overall performance of post-mixed biodiesel blends (POBD 20) was found to be comparable with diesel and other prepared test fuel blends. Similarly, comparing exhaust emissions, oxides of nitrogen and carbon dioxide were on its higher side by 2.64% and 2.43% than normal diesel fuel. On the contrary, carbon monoxide, hydrocarbon and smoke opacity for POBD 20 were found to be 36.87%, 51.5% and 23.2% lower than conventional diesel fuel. From the above study, it is finally concluded that POBD 20 blend may be used as an alternative optional fuel that can substitute present diesel fuel without much engine modification and exhaust related problems.
