Abstract

Abstract In this study, the combustion, performance and emission characteristics of conventional diesel fuel and biodiesel produced from soybean oil and its blends (B10, B20, B50) were compared. The tests were performed at steady-state conditions in a single-cylinder direct injection diesel engine over the entire rpm range (1200–3000 rpm). During the tests, the fuel consumption, pollutant emissions, exhaust temperature and in-cylinder pressures were measured. The experimental results, showed that, relative to diesel, biodiesel had a 1–4% decrease in the torque and an approximately 2–9% increase in the brake-specific fuel consumption (BSFC) due to the lower heating value (LHV) of the biodiesel. However, biodiesel significantly reduced carbon monoxide (CO) (28–46%) and unburned total hydrocarbons (THCs), while the nitric oxides (NOx) (6.95–17.62%) and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions increased slightly 1.46–5.03%. The combustion analyses showed that the addition of biodiesel to conventional diesel fuel decreased the ignition delay and reduced the premixed peak. These results indicated that biodiesel could be used without any engine modifications as an alternative and environmentally friendly fuel.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
