Effect of Fuel Magnetism by Varying Intensity on Performance of Single Cylinder Four Stroke Diesel Engine

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of the fuel magnetisation on the performance of diesel engine. It has been observed that on magnetisation viscosity of hydrocarbon fuel decreases due to declustering of the Hydrocarbon fuel molecules which results in better atomization of the fuel and efficient combustion of air fuel mixture. This enhances thermal efficiency and improves the fuel economy of I.C engine. The magnetic field applied along the fuel line immediately before fuel injector. The magnetic field of different intensity 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000Gauss is applied with the help of solenoid Electro-magnetic coil and its effect on fuel consumption as well as on exhaust gas emission is studied and compared with performance without application of magnetic field. At different load conditions the experiments are conducted to analyse the fuel consumption, thermal efficiency and exhaust gas analyser is used to measure the exhaust gas emission such a NOX, HC, CO and CO2.
